  1. I feel like you people need to give us more description when it comes to the suspects . The public cannot help if news are reported half ways. Either the Sheriff is not doing their job or the journalist are not . Someone please be more descriptive to report additional information as to who , when and how . That’s what good journalist do.

    • Brenda, I completely agree with you. It feels like the news is only half way everytime more is needed in order to be the eyes and ears out there for our Sheriff. More prepare and professional journalism please…

  2. What Mark said!

  3. How did he get from 7/11 to Langside? Something’s not adding up unless he was driving because I would assume being shot and walking that far would’ve been pretty hard for him.

  4. How about explaining how to follow developing information in a simple straight way???

  5. @Lisa
    He more than likely took the bike trail along the river.

  6. With all the videos around, Why aren’t we told what he looks like, wearing, tattoos, hair, beard, etc.!!

  7. Yay! Please ensure more cheap apartments are built in C.C.! We need more crime on this side of town… Or maybe we should tear that shit down and stop fooling ourselves into believing we should continue to give handouts to people that bring society down. Why do I continue to hear more about trying to bring “affordable” housing to Canyon Country like it’s such a great thing? Why don’t people connect the dots and realize this is what you get when you purposely bring property value down?

  8. Marc: That’s all we need to know?!?! Time/area is a start, but, what did they look like, clothing, tattoos, hair, beards, etc.!! Please tell the truth/facts, no COVERUPS of the truths/facts!!

  9. Behind you at Walmart?? Are you sure?? Experience the fools at Walmart, Costco, etc. pulling carts from the side taking up 2 spaces, leaving carts sideways blocking rows, blocking walkways, etc.—Bad behavior of the cretin sheep is contagious!!
