carryout owner shot and killed.

[Older Than Dirt]

My entire inner city neighborhood knew this man. He had a gas station/carry out for many years. Bad neighborhood, but convenient for Cigs.,bread, gas etc. When I expressed my concern about coming in his place, he assured me that he had things under control and had only needed to call TPD twice in 15 yrs. He was armed and I think that was well known. VERY nice guy to deal with. I much preferred to send my son or husband, but sometimes I would be right at that corner. He even said that he would walk to my car with me. The neighborhood was very sad to hear what happened. There was scuttlebut that it was due to the girlfriend's big mouth. You know, kind of like the Johnny Clark-Lisa thing. Who knows, but I sure hope that LE figures it out !!!!! I didn't check it out, but I don't think that any felony convictions. All I know is that he was very well thought of. Just sayin .
