Prrrrrrr 10/22/2012 10:37:18 AM ReportAbduction that occurred on the 17th September 2012...
More than a month ago? This is news today? WHY?
Menard6969 10/22/2012 11:17:41 AM ReportIt's more than likely news today because the police can't do the job they're paid to do and need to rely on the public to hand the guy over once again. Real crack investigation team the Sault has....best of the best.
geterdun 10/22/2012 8:13:05 PM ReportPRRRRRRRR: your right why does it take the cops a month to release an attempted abduction??? WTF!!!Man this city is getting bad.......time to start carrying when we go for a walk.........oh well thats the new way now.........
Prrrrrrr 10/22/2012 9:30:09 PM Reportgeterdun...I think there is more behind the late release of info about this incident (undercover)...sounds like suddenly the police want to get that car found and fast.
...that's a lot of detail about the vehicle to not have released the info when it happened, maybe there was a black sunfire used in that armed robbery last night...
Working Man 10/22/2012 11:31:17 PM ReportWith that sticker on the back of his car, it shouldn't be that hard to find him.
My guess is that they waited so long to come out with that information because they were looking for that specific car with that same sticker.. After the news release, he probably scraped it off real quick.
Hopefully somebody rats him out.
moem 10/23/2012 12:33:14 AM ReportScary glad she got away!!!
Caucasian male, majority of the sex offenders and serial killers are, guess we don't need to ask which direction he drove do we geterdun????
