A man was robbed and then shot in the ass in an early morning robbery near Mosby Court:
A man told police he was robbed about 12:10 a.m. this morning of his watch, jacket and cash by three men who approached him in the 1300 block of Coalter Street, said Capt. Dave Martin. The robbers told the man to leave, and as he was walking away the victim was shot in the buttocks, Martin said.
Run Forrest, RUN!
That’s just downright RUDE!
Why can’t Mosby Court be shot in the buttocks?
I think people need to start shooting back.

Robberies on Church Hill – Nearly every night, on Church Hill, some thievish scoundrels waylay and rob persons passing in the public streets.
Sunday night, it is said, about 10 o’clock, a man was knocked down and robbed of his watch, on or near Clay and 27th streets, and again on Monday night the same party were seen on Marshall street, in the same neighborhood, armed with knives and pistols.
After stealing from a marketman the amount for which he had sold his produce, they fired their pistols and cut with their knives at some persons, who hearing the alarm had pursued them.
The gang is composed of quite young men, and an effort is now being made to detect the guilty ones, and bring them to justice.
Church Hill has heretofore been noted for the quiet and peace that reigned in its vicinity.
A 148 years later… same breed of a-holes.
