Shooting and robbery on Coalter Street

nbc12 has info on 2 separate incidents from Monday:
Monday, Richmond Police responded to a shooting and an armed robbery on Coalter Street, near Mosby Court. Not only were those incidents on the same street, they were on the exact same block. At 2:00 p.m. an armed robber confronted a man. Just five hours later and a few yards away, a different man was shot. Police say the two crimes aren’t linked.
This is very frustrating. Mosby Court is a fairly small complex and I assume people mostly know one another. Why would someone prey on his neighbors, and why would the neighbors tolerate it?
Mosby Court actually is the largest of the RRHA courts. it is divided into three parts. People from other neighborhoods may come where everyone knows each other and do this sort of crime. Black on black crime is shameful enough but neighbor on neighbor crime is even worse. I think that is not the case here.
Yes. Black on white or white on black crime is certainly more acceptable.
