First, a more important and pressing topic: check out Megan Goodmundson's recent blog post, click here, about how the old "Petro Stop" gas station sign is for sale "to a good home."
Moving on, now, to the more scuzzy neighborhood news which I find it necessary to publish as North Minneapolis fights and claws its way to urban utopia...
After an anonymous commenter made some (baseless and shallow) criticisms of an old blog post about a police raid at 2654 Morgan Ave. N., I began digging to see if I could find out more information about what's going on at that troublesome address.
Lately, I've figured out a nifty trick. I plug in a North Minneapolis street address on Google and also the word "roster." If somebody has been arrested who lists that address as home AND the info has been captured in my periodic jailhouse roster postings, then up pops my own "roster" blog post in the search.
As Hawthorne Housing Director Jeff Skrenes once put it so well, our NoMi blogs are not just media but "searchable repositories of neighborhood knowledge."
Well, even when my roster came up in the search, I had a little bit of difficulty finding the cached information. I knew SOMEBODY had been arrested at that house on or about August 17, (the day of my blog posting) and their middle name was "Scott," but the info (truncated on my Google search) was buried amid the names of THOUSANDS of denizens of the jail who were captured in that particular posting about the roster. And my little searchy-text-doodle function wasn't working right.
Hoping for some dumb luck, I went to the jail website and searched for the names of anybody "received by" the jail on August 17. If the charges were very serious, and that person didn't make bail, I knew they might still be in jail and therefore on the CURRENT roster.
It was a shot in the dark hoping for dumb luck, I thought, but worth a try...
Well, like putting a nickel in a slot machine and seeing four cherries appear, my luck was unusually good.
Jonathon Scott Galas and Demian NMN Hebert were arrested on August 17, 2011 in the raid reported here on Johnny Northside Dot Com. They remain in the jail this very moment, unable to make bail, on drugs and weapons charges.
Behold.

In addition to Jonathon Scott Galas and Demian Hebert, there are three other individuals who were arrested on August 17 and still remain in jail pending bail. Their home addresses are NOT 2654 Morgan Ave. N.
It is unknown if these folks were picked up in the same raid and simply have different addresses. Since the two suspects who list their address as 2654 Morgan Ave. N. were booked around 8 in the morning, and these other folks were booked three hours later and TWELVE hours later, I don't think they were part of the raid on 2654 Morgan Ave. N.
It is, however, their bad luck to share interesting similarities with Galas and Hebert, enough for me to throw their info into this blog post "for the hell of it."
DEONDRE LESHAWN BISHOP, 6/2/1985, lists home address as 2638 James Ave. N. (That's really not far from the raid)

RODNEY FREDERICK CHANEY, lists address as 1010 Currie, which is some kind of shelter that comes up all the time on the roster. Charged with sex crimes. I'm sure this guy was NOT part of the raid. But he's a scum bucket, so what the heck? Here's his info.
