Isn’t this the same place a man got his throat slit and died about 10 years ago.
Just a shame this had to happen in such a beautiful and family friendly neighborhood. Just dont understand this happening in this part of town.
Could be any neighborhood….your neighborhood is no better.
That whole area has deteriorated ever since they turned those fine old homes into HUD apartments. Nothing but trouble there now.
