Only 55 days into 2024 and already THREE MURDERS
Will mayor PODIUM hold another press conference posturing for the TV cameras telling citizens of Antioch crime is down?
.
Citizens of Antioch it is time to get rid of politicians with woke agendas.
You need to send a message to criminals Support YOUR Police and elect a DA that incarcerates criminals.
This was in Pittsburg, not Antioch.
Not sure how you got Pittsburg… this incident occurred in City of Antioch. Tupelo Way is located in Antioch
Victim was from Pittsburg. 187 was in Antioch.
Do you really think displaying how many officers are servicing Antioch currently is a good idea?
This is letting the thugs with guns aware how understaffed the city is.Focus on what we can do to keep us safe..maybe there should be a community watch unit and impost a City Wide Curfew..or be fined with a court appearance!!!
PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
