Tuesday Sky under lockdown
Teenage Trouble
What our Tuesday sky looked like.
Sunday afternoon was the first indication something was up in our neighborhood. I looked out our living room window just in time to see a State Trooper drive into the yard.
As he searched our property with automatic rifle drawn, we learned there was an intensive search going on for a local 16 year old boy who grew up in the subdivision across the street.
It became a little like whispering a secret into 2 cans connected with some string - the story grew with each telling. The kid was either Superman, flying from one County to the next - alluding police at every turn or common sense was in short supply. He's lucky to be alive and damn stupid.
It would seem my cousin Leland is lucky as well. I felt bad for the kid right up until he was said to have [taken the back on an axe to my cousin's head.] Jeesh.
Yeah. He'll be living at the Mountain View Youth Center for a while.
They used to call it jail.

OMG!!! I just heard about that this morning! Glad your cousin is OK. This is one kid who didn't live up to his name, so to speak...
