Contributed photo, blog post by John Hoff, it is not known which of the
burglars is pictured or whether it is Navarr Ross, blog post by John Hoff
It was one year ago JNS blog wrote about the very last of a group of Thanksgiving "turd burglars" entering a guilty plea, click here, and that last one to plea was Navarr Ross.
The burglars, who broke into the home of an elderly and respected Northside senior citizen on Thanksgiving day, 2012, were dubbed "turd burglars" because of a disgusting act, best left undescribed, which one of the burglars committed in the bathroom before a spontaneous posse of Northside neighbors, one wearing superhero pajamas, trapped the burglars in the house long enough for police to catch every one of them...
And now it turns out Navarr Ross is accused in a string of violent robberies, click here for recent news article. Also accused is 16-year-old Antonio Deshawn Timberlake and an unnamed 13-year-old juvenile who stabbed somebody in the neck, allegedly. This blog has never before heard of Antonio Timberlake, but the surname is all-too-familiar as one of the most prominent North Minneapolis crime families.
Navar Ross is currently sitting in jail charged with four counts of aggravated robbery, one count of theft of moveable property. His bail is $50,000. The robbery charges were brought by Edina PD, so allegedly this Northside "turd burglar" decided to pick a suburban environment where victims have more money than a senior citizen in North Minneapolis. (The moveable property charge, however, was brought my Metro Transit PD)
Ross' home address is listed on the roster as "3 Upton Ave. N.," an address that does not exist and makes no sense at all.
Step it up, Hennepin County Jail. Here you catch a rare and elusive turd burglar and many citizens wish to learn his habitat, but once again you've messed up the information on the roster. Don't make me send Thomas Evenstad to go knocking on the sheriff's door to talk to you about this!
(Kidding. I'm kidding, of course)
(But seriously, do you know how long I've waited to write the first sentence in that headline?)
Johnny, nice to see the north thugs are branching out - hopefully you will continue to write about them. How many times has Ross been in trouble so far? Was he just turning his life around by thugging in south Mpls now?
ReplyDeleteWhat's with the change in your homepage? Now I have to go all the way to the bottom to find articles.
ReplyDeleteWhy did you re-arrange the homepage?
Eventually they'll arrest him for being a "prohibited person in possession (of a firearm)". If MN legislators cared about public safety, that ought to earn a person about 7 years in the pokey with no chance of parole. Instead they're out in 7 months and end up shooting someone.
ReplyDeleteA comment has been rejected. I will not publish comments that use the word "subhuman" in what appears to be a racist context. I do not care what other stuff you've said in your comment, stuff that I might even agree with; I will not allow the use of that word in comments on my blog.
ReplyDeleteThere was no "rearrangement" of the home page. I do not understand the technical problem you are complaining about in regard to "go to the bottom" to read articles. As new articles are added, older articles go to the bottom. It's always been this way. Are you trying to access the blog from your phone or a PC or what?
ReplyDeleteFuck you!
ReplyDeleteThe boxes have been rearranged on the home page on the right side. There are now ads on the very top. And stuff has been moved down, that I know was placed higher previously. I was wondering why you have moved the boxes around. The old look was better.
ReplyDeleteOh, that happened about a week ago, I think. Maybe it was a couple weeks ago. Here's the technical explanation, tedious as it is:
ReplyDeleteIf I put three advertisement boxes on the right side, no ads appear below my current articles. I want ads to appear below my current articles, so I removed one of the "right side" ad boxes.
I also moved the "curfew times" image a little higher, since summer will soon be here and it's important for readers to know the curfew times. Those elements by the right side often get rearranged. I don't consider those elements to have an impact on the whole "look" of the blog. All the same, what would YOU suggest?
This picture is not Navar
ReplyDeleteYou don't even have the right kid in the pic, that is not Navar
ReplyDeleteRead the photo credit before you comment so you won't look dumb. The photo depicts the arrest of one of the turd burglars but the credit to the photo states it is unknown which of the turd burglars is depicted.
ReplyDeleteSadly, Navarr appears to have no intention of changing his behavior. I am one of his victims and doubt I will ever see a dime of restitution. Hopefully he will get prison time for his current charges. Once he starts working in prison, I can get restitution. Sad, sad, sad.
