Excellent!

Whew!  Finally.  It will be interesting to hear his motives, if he actually admits to it.

That's what I'm wondering about Tide.  Interesting to hear!

I just saw this and immediately thought of you!

So glad to hear Snippy.  I didn't even realize this was still going on.  So how many people ended up being shot?

Snippylynn

Hm, I think it was about 40.

Beachy730

Wow that is so unbelievable that he went that long without getting caught.  Hopefully they have the right guy in custody. 

So have you still be as scared this whole time as you were a few weeks ago when you posted about it?  I can't imagine thinking about it that whole time and being scared everytime I left the apartment.

Snippylynn

Well, we don't live in that city, just nearby.  I have had to go there a couple of times, but I only went during the day.  One of Allen's coworkers is married to an Iranian guy, and they live in Malmo.  They said they haven't been leaving the apartment after sundown, which here, means about 4:30. 

Beachy730

Wow.  Well I'm glad you guys didn't live in that city (I forgot you had said that before), but that is so scary for the many people that did that were targeted.  I couldn't imagine what it would be like to live in fear that long.  Hopefully for everyone it is over.

Snippylynn

They didn't catch it for a long time because there's a lot of random violence in one particular part of the city, always around immigrants and gangs. But yeah, that's what I was thinking too.  Can't believe that it took so long for them to notice.

About time! Glad you're safe!

Eek! Glad they caught the person.  Even though you didn't live in that city, when Flint had a serial killer I was still nervous he'd start to move around the Metro-Detroit area.

That's awesome! Let's hope he's the right guy.
