My boy you should have just complied. Now look at how many charges you facing
Wow, what a crazy situation in Parham! especially with a weapon involved. I hope the woman is okay after that scare. Kudos to the police for acting quickly to catch the suspect. It makes you think about how important it is to stay aware of our surroundings, especially at night. Let’s hope this doesn’t become a trend in our community.
