curious-where abouts are you from? we live on Beverly North-and the field they were searching was directly across from where u turn to our road..I traveled 2 mile yesterday-just as always lately and this just scares the crap out of me! Its usually the kids and I -you can get to our home from the trails off 2 mile too and I am very disappointed in the Sherriff’s for not alerting anyone! We are always outside and I just dont know what I would have done! Is there not any common courtesy left to even just let others know when danger is near ?come on now! THANKS to our neighbor up close to the search area-we would have never known what was going on! also where abouts in GrandBay did the other happen last week? and does anyone know if he has been caught? Thanks ya’ll~

He walked down our street and smiled and waved at us, and someone at my house said ain’t they looking for a young black man. So we called the police dept. and told them and they got their quick but he ran into the woods.  Honestly I don’t know how they missed him.  He went to one of the houses in our neighborhood and drank from there water hose and hosed his body off.  He didn’t look like a bad guy to me he looked like a kid.  But I know looks can be deceiving.

It was pretty scary to hear they were on a manhunt last night when we came home! Didnt know the details until just now-yes JUST NOW! the area they were searching was at the end of our road,there is also many wooded areas he could have run and one of them is back down our way and to the end where the trails and heavy woods start! RIGHT behind us on the dead end..I am very disappointed that officials didnt come down to warn us or anything so we would know our children or ourselves could possibly be in danger! This man could have easily seen a avenue that would conveince him more than the woods & if he “shot at”,& bailed-then you never know what their next move will be-criminal minds will do anything if that desperate to get away! One of the 10 Sheriffs cars could have made everyone aware so they could take safety precautions until this was over..

WHAT? Are you serious?...or are you kidding? So, in your line of thought, there is no reason to look for someone who is shooting AT PEOPLE? You are okay with someone shooting AT, but not hitting you with a subsonic projectile? You would not call the police if someone fired a loaded weapon at you? You would not want the police to look for or apprehend that person? You must be bulletproof. I have my doubts that you would NOT call the police if you were fired at with a loaded weapon. What about an automobile? What if someone tried to run over you with their vehicle? Would you call the police? Would you say it was okay if they did not try to find the person driving? If you live in an area where someone gets shot at everyday, then I would suggest moving. By the way, it’s “Why WASTE time”...not “waist”.
