Dan reports:
“I went to Panino Gourmet Sunday and all of the pumps/fill-up areas at the Valero were ripped out of the ground and were gone; some temporary fencing was erected where they had been. Fearing for the future of Panino I asked if they knew what was going on and they conveyed the message that the building would probably be torn down soon and with it Panino. Sad news that I hope somehow isn’t true.” (more…)

Update from MPD:
“There was no shooting. There was an assault in the alley where 4 individuals assaulted a victim, with one striking him with a firearm. According to witnesses a 5th individual took the firearm and discharged 1 round into the ground to disperse the crowd. We were able to locate one suspect who was positively identified as one of the assailants and placed under arrest, but the weapon was not recovered.”
Will first reported around 10pm: “Something happened at 14/U in alley between City First Bank and Goodwood. Large police/EMS presence. Chopper overhead.” (more…)
