“Dear PoPville,
I got a new one for you. Lost our trash can today because as they we’re picking up trash .. shots were fired on Girard and the trash guys threw the trash can in the truck and drove off.
11am this occurred on Girard Street between Georgia and Sherman ave. Think i can get my trash cans back?”
