On Java, blog post by John Hoff
Jeff Skrenes, who blogs on North By Northside blog as the Hawthorne Hawkman, shared information with JNS blog about the murder of Antonio Flood. Click here for previous coverage.
According to Skrenes, who lives right there at 26th and Penn...
...he was away from his house but alerted to the shooting by an "app" on his phone called "Next Door." So for the second time in a few months, Jeff's house was once again blocked off by yellow crime scene tape.
Skrenes reports the shooting happened close to the intersection of 27th and Penn, though on the 2600 block. Police at the scene knocked on Skrenes' door to determine if he'd seen anything. From talking to the police, Skrenes caught this little snippet of information:
The shooting appeared to be a drive by shooting. It was, however, not random.
No suspect is in custody at this time in the murder of Antonio Flood.

Amazing!
The police actually sought out information.
That's not a fair comment about the police. The police are constantly hampered by citizens who won't volunteer information because they are fearful, many times overly fearful.
Unfortunately, it is fair and accurate.
Johnny, your message seems a little muffled. Not doubt due to the huge hairy buns pressed against your cheeks. But I get it - got to protect your sources.
NO...he is fucking on the spot anon@8:46 p.m....if not for the Minneapolis Police Department your ass would be someone else's ass. I am fucking tired of you silly fux that keep talking shit because you are relying on the same folks that you rake over the coals to protect your sorry bitch asses..fuck you thin skinned 21st century pussies!!! I believe we have one of he best Police forces in the country because I have been around the world you blaming asswipies.
he was a good guy a hard worker at work.his gf would constamtly leave him there
I'm terrified to call the police when I witnessed things I see crime everyday I open up my door I look out my window and I'm scared I'm scared of the criminals and I'm scared of the police I've had to call the police numerous times about my neighbors doing horrible things and the police will tell him its me even though I'm calling anonymously I don't feel safe with all that being said when you visited a different neighborhood the police are very pleasant and kind but in the inner city I think they're just push to sew much extremes that their jobs are very difficult and it's sad that good police officers who try to be kind to people in North Minneapolis never get the credit because there's so many bad ones eyewitness the police doing all sorts of things that would get them in trouble very scary I remember I never mind
This about sums it up...Anonn@226a:m is afraid and terrified...henceforth we need police protection and it cannot be both ways.
Get to know our fine police force and bust all these assholes out that are nothing but domestic terrorist's.
The days are numbered if I have to go out there and shoot you fuckers in numbers you will hate. Came across a huge amount of money and might decide to go STEALTH on your sorry asse's. I have not a bit to lose and will take a bunch of you cocksuckers out. Leave us alone or else.
WAR ON FREAKING GANGBANGERS STARTS TODAY AND THIS IS THE BEST I CAN DO...take out as many as possible. I have six months to live and will do society a favor. This is a fucking promise. Take out any potential shitheads. Check me on the First Amendment then watch the fuck out.
Publishing the comment for such interest as the authorities may have in it. I've been rejecting similar comments along the same lines for months, though this is the first mention of the commenter having a terminal illness.
Also publishing the stupid "leave us alone or else" and "I've come into a big pile of money" comment, which is also stupid, and I also publish it for whatever mild and passing interest (if any) the authorities may have in this kind of anonymous comment garbage.
none...bitch..you think your shit don't stink...they don't care boutch you!~!! You are a piece of fuking shit...chase me and pay..fuck.
