I cannot even begin to describe the insanity of yesterday afternoon. I work in a relatively nice area with a lot of surrounding businesses. Around 3:30 yesterday afternoon, police cars swarmed the intersection a block away and there were helicopters flying overhead. A man had robbed a bank and there was a police-involved shooting. The robber was killed, and a 2 year-old child was shot.
This is the second shooting within a few blocks of my office in a month. I really just have no words. I keep thinking, “This isn’t the ghetto! This is a NICE area!” What is this world coming to?!
My thoughts and prayers go out to the victims’ families.
