As Gomer Pyle used to say…Surpise Surprise Surpise. Good for the woman. Anyone that bold with a woman and child in public is a threat. I wonder if it was really his brains she threatened to shoot ha ha

Sharyn, will you have a report about the Longview lady that pulled her gun on the guy in the park? Close enough to home….

I can just imagine how some reading this news article will immediately point their finger at the cops for harassing the guy on the bike. I will be thankful that if he was not following the traffic laws after dark that he is off the road and not in the way of an unsuspecting driver.
“A firearm was stolen overnight from an unlocked vehicle parked on the 100 block of East Maple Street in Centralia, according to police.”
Only a gun was stolen? Was the vehicle left unlocked on purpose? Smells fishy to me….
