MOBILE, Alabama --
Mobile police need your help to catch a mob that beat Matthew Owens so badly that he's in critical condition.
According to police, Owens fussed at some kids playing basketball in the middle of Delmar Drive about 8:30 Saturday night. They say the kids left and a group of adults returned, armed with everything but the kitchen sink.
Police tell News 5 the suspects used chairs, pipes and paint cans to beat Owens.
Owens' sister, Ashley Parker, saw the attack. "It was the scariest thing I have ever witnessed." Parker says 20 people, all African American, attacked her brother on the front porch of his home, using "brass buckles, paint cans and anything they could get their hands on."
Police will only say "multiple people" are involved.
What Parker says happened next could make the fallout from the brutal beating even worse. As the attackers walked away, leaving Owen bleeding on the ground, Parker says one of them said "Now thats justice for Trayvon." Trayvon Martin is the unarmed teenager police say was shot and killed February 26 by neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman in Samford, Florida.
Police canvassed the area, but did not find any suspects. They're asking anyone with information to call them at 251-208-7211, Crime Stoppers at 251-208-7000, or text a tip to 274637 and include the keyword CRIME 411.
*****
Three things:
The cops can't find twenty people that live int the neighborhood? Really?
Justice for Treyvon? My ass - it's just another excuse for them to excercise their racism.
But what I find hard to believe is that he allowed it to happen. If I see a mob advancing towards me, I'm not going to stand there looking stupid and feeling safe because I'm on my own front porch. Fuck no, I'm retreating to a more defensible location and arming myself. Let the games begin.....
The cops don't want to find 20 people. especially black ones! They are chickenshit fucks that are afraid of igniting a riot. So what, kill those fucking 20 and then maybe they'll get the message that we're tired of them and their fucking "race" shit. As for treyvon, the zimmermans should have gotten a check for 5000 bucks..........from Crimestoppers, Inc.
ReplyDeletecabalas has ammo on sale.
ReplyDeleteFuck them. If all you have is paint cans and i have a 12 GA, My front porch is very defensible.
ReplyDeleteAnd this would be why I'm armed at all times. Because at 43, I'm not able to go toe to toe with a crowd of 20 or more angry bastards. And it seems like they need the numbers on their side to start shit like this.
ReplyDeleteWait'll you turn 50 and it hurts just to take a shit.
ReplyDeleteMaybe if you stayed out of your wifes perc drawer, you could shit properly!
ReplyDeleteThe victim is a felon with a buttload of domestic violence issues behind him = no gun allowed.
ReplyDeleteBut I damn sure would have gone in the house and locked the door.
