A homicide near a pot shop?? *Pretend shocked face*


Many of the homeless here are ex-cons who have been released into our community (despite policies requiring them to be returned to their county of commitment).


Always been an interesting little forgotten area back there. Used to drink 40’s over in that creek in high school. Sucks a guy got killed…
