Why was it a close one? Because longtime reader and friend JD was out on his morning 3 miler and was just feet away when it happened.
Yeah, he emailed me shortly after he was done giving his statement and I was all about "Daaamn, who the fuck would expect to see that on an otherwise pleasant morning?"
It's definitely not what I expected when I left for my walk.... I've been walking through this area for years and it's always been a quiet place with only maybe a dog or 2 barking at me...

I just looked that parish up. That’s the SOUTH!
DeleteAbout as far south as you can go and not be in the Gulf of America

Head on a swivel gents. Crazy and broke people do crazy broke things. It may be a good idea to change up the routine a few days a week. That well beaten path used at the same time every day is a signal to folks with bad intentions.
ReplyDeleteI had my eyes on them, they were arguing and I expected them to start swinging at each other... It was cool enough to wear a sweatshirt or hoodie and that's what the shooter had on.. The gun came out of the kangaroo pocket fast and he just started shooting, I was about 20 ft away and hauled my ass away ASAP to behind cover...
