this area has always been a high crime area every since i was younger and i am noe 42. the sad unfortunate thing is that arecommunities are becoming killingfields of unsolved murders. it takes us as citizens to began to pay attention to what is going on in our nieghborhoods and start to involve ourselves for the sake of our children. it is not just up to the police it's up to us. communitity leaders need to come out not just when a tragedy happens but to give their support in our communities before tragedy strikes

A gang member that goes by the name of Crazy did this. This is my friend's brother. People saw this take place but they are scared to come forward because they all live in the same neighborhood. Crazy is a member of the Hoover Crip gang..............
