small excitement on 23rd Street
04/09/2008 6:30 PM by John M
In the words of the less-than-loquacious officer on the scene, the police were “investigating a situation” when 2 guys drove away and were pulled on the 1100 block of 23rd Street. It looked like they found little tiny bag of weed in the car. One guy was taken away in the van, after screaming for bystanders to “call my girl” and “tell her that I love her”. A second man was cuffed for a while and then released; he waited until the cops were gone to retrieve whatever he’d stashed under the parked car.
The yellow arrow indicates a good place to hide things that you do not want the police to find.
off topic…I was trying to start a new post but perhaps this will do.
I the past few weeks, two of my friends have been held up at gunpoint by a/some hooded thugs in OUR neighborhood. Separate occasions, separate locations.
If the Richmond Police Department cannot eliminate this threat, some well armed citizens may. Enough is enough.
What does it take to get these thugs off of the street?
Concealed weapon permit? Nope. If this neighborhood is becoming the wild, wild, west, I’m carrying an licensed weapon in a holster for all to see. Maybe two, and a derringer in one boot, a knife in the other.
It’s on. I’m gonna go Bronson, Charles Bronson.
Where did these incidents occur?
Whatever happened to the bag of weed?
I smoked the bag of weed. It made me and my friends very happy. You should have been here.
Incident # 1 – Happy Family. 23rd and Thug. Easter Eve.
Incident # 2 – Parking lot of Poe’s Pub. Last Eve.
Same M.O.
Wow! My car is famous…you put your “weeeed” in it.
Nice SNL reference
Can’t we get the Right Reverend and Honorable Dolores McQuinn “pay us some mind” and do something to protect her constituency?
Hey Stupor Dave, if you continue to smoke the bags of weed you find in the gutter on 23rd St., you’re going to end up living in a van down by the river!
I’m not sure what you’re getting at here. The police chief is a position appointed by the mayor, not the council. In addition, said police chief has done such a great job that other cities are trying to steal him away (Richmond Free Press – PDF).
And I’ve a seen a very visible uptick in police enforcement in our particular neck of the woods. The incident above wouldn’t have happened if the police weren’t scoping out something already. I saw 2 bike cops getting up on something very quickly on 22nd street the other day, too.
Dang post #8 another snappy right on time SNL reference.
