A man was shot in the Rolling Acres subdivision on Wednesday, the Journal Star reported. WEEK’s website reports that the man has died.
I attended Rolling Acres school for Kindergarten through seventh grade (it was a K-8 school back then), and I had many friends who lived throughout the Rolling Acres, Sherwood Forest, and Joanne Manor neighborhoods. Hearing about a shooting should be shocking to us no matter where it happens, but I’ll be honest, it’s more shocking to me hearing that it happened in the neighborhood where I grew up. I guess it just hits a little too close to home.
I’m waiting to hear about the 800lb gorilla that’s likely in the room right now. I know what people will say – but the truth is a bitch, if I’m right.
Oops. Nevermind. I’m right. Huge amount of “herb” found too.
