One homicide a day. That's a pretty impressive record you're racking up there, PG County! Maybe the county government needs to get some kind of crime task force in place to start dealing with this problem.
ReplyDeleteGood Job PG...go for lucky #13..Keep that crap across the bridge.....Heck we will even give you some of Salisbury wanna be fools.
ReplyDeleteDid Webster take on a job there.
ReplyDeleteWhy a homicide if the homeowner was the one who shot the intruder and killed the intruder?
ReplyDelete942-They apparently have already conviened a taskforce, bringing together smaller municipal PDs, allowing for better inter-department communications. I personally don't think it'll make a bit of difference.
ReplyDeleteMmmmm , the bad guys have moved 5 miles into PG and out of D.C.
ReplyDeleteNuke the whole area.
