Anyone know where along the street?
I don't know, but..
The pin on that map is remarkably close to where I used to live. The area had been on the way up when I moved there in the late 90's. It was spiraling downward fast, when I left in early '07. It's a beautiful street, too - designed by Olmstead as a boundry road for Franklin Park.
Cause?
What was the cause of the downward spiral?
I live right by where you moved from
I'm also curious what you noticed that caused you to describe a negative spiral when you were living there. I live a block away. Many of our neighbors are very connected to each other and we could reach out to that part of the street if there is some place where we can be of influence.
I think I drove by the aftermath
This afternoon saw a ton of police cars etc. On forest hills st between glen road and Williams. Near a big 70s looking nursing home?
what i heard
yeah they got car jacked an assaulted at gun point they were lucky to be alive it was in broad day light with people everywhere around 170-180 on forrest hill
more details?
details are very scant - don't see any mention on bpdnews.com. does anyone have any further information? from the pin on the map, this happened right near my home.
