Crime wave hits Plainfield after second homicide


Since Plainfield's second homicide Sunday evening (see here), a miniature crime wave has broken out in the Queen City.

Consider this --

  • Monday -- TWO armed robberies with handguns;

  • Monday -- SHOOTING at Elmwood Gardens; no one injured, but bullet went through a first-floor window;

  • Tuesday -- STABBING at Stebbins Place and West 3rd Street. Victim got himself to Muhlenberg SED, transferred to University Hospital for trauma surgery;

  • Tuesday -- ROBBERY with slashing on East 3rd Street. Passerby interrupted robbery of 75-year-old male, who had been slashed in the neck.

  • Tuesday -- SHOOTING: Male shot on Liberty Street, near South Second Street, around 9:30 PM.
Bet you won't read this news on the City's website.

Oh my . . . oh my!!!

What's Mayor Sharon going to use to win the November election against Pivnichny??? I would have to believe she used up all of her negative percentage. Crime in Plainfield was down by how much of a percentage???

350% 250% 150% Whatever . . . And Plainfield voted Sharon and Jerry back into the running. What a joke!

Pivnichny . . . start sharpening up your team. You could win this election not as a Republican but as the best choice.

P.S. That goes for you too Bo.

What are you willing to give up to increase the police force? Doesnt matter if you are Republican or Democrat. There is a cost for everything.
