Shots Fired




You’re lying in your bed… 3 or 4 a.m. you hear “POP, POP, POP”.  Oh God, you think.. Let it be fireworks and not gun shots.  You don’t want to look and you wonder if you should call 911.

Then before you know it.. here comes the light and sirens from the police cars. Good ..you think, they are here.

The next day you talk to the neighbors and find out it was really gun shots.  Now you are upset.
Bullets could have hit a house just like they did on Stanton Street a week or two ago or worst.. hit a person..or my family sleeping in our beds.

The next night you’re trying to calm down and fall asleep and once AGAIN you hear the same sound. “POP, POP, POP”.   

This time you know what it is.  You can’t believe it is happening again.  It is.  Then before you know it.. here comes the light and sirens from the police cars again.





                                                                                   


This is a true story told to me by a family member

and Crime Watch members that live on
 Parrish Street.

Two nights in a row, Friday and Saturday night..

 Shots were Fired.
