Bunch of hoodlums..Glad they got caught!!

You guys think the criminals are black and from the south side? Place your bets now, while the standoff is going on, so that we will know who was right when the standoff ends. Let's hope the cops put a bullet in whoever it is, so that the taxpayers save money.

How the heck did they get away? So now nobody is safe.
When is St Pete Police Chief gonna do something about the high rise in crime in the city?

Hmmm did they check the attic for the suspect? Maybe one was dressed as a female when they left the house?
Posted by: Punkin | Wednesday, January 07, 2009 at 11:46 AM
maybe they were women who actually committed the crime in the first place

The St.pete Police are known for not solving crimes! We need to get the show another 48 down here so you all could see who the bad guys really are!remember (96)!

My aunt was murdered in the 70,s later a friend in 92 and they never caught any one! seems to me they need to treat every case as if it were there family and STOP with all the RACIST comments oh excuse me thats the American Way i actually thought i was in a free society!!

Why are 9 people living in a 2 BR home? Get the drug users and their loser friends out of our neighborhood!!

Al-
It may say 2 bedroom, but it's also over 1300 sq ft. Pretty darn big for a 2 bedroom in that area. So how does that make them "drug users", anyway?

Once again the St Pete Police Dept has made A FOOL OF THEMSELVES. We need the Sheriffs Dept to take over!!!! Get rid of SPPD

I agree with Pat, St. Pete Police is a real joke

South St Pete's wall needs to be built. Central Avenue south must be cut off from the rest of us. The animals need to be caged.

LMMFAO..................Wheeeeeeeeeew OMG!! This is just too funny. The person that shot him was one of the nine that came out of the house (like a victim). He knows who shot him, and so do the rest of the idiots that were in the home.
SPPD --- Give it man, just give it up. You people are a joke.
