I’m wondering about the bystander who was shot. I believe it said she was shot in the thigh and this article said she remains in critical condition. I will feel better once I know that she’s going to be alright.
Is she a Maplewood resident? I’m guessing so since she was out walking.
I could not agree with Karen more. Lets hope the courts don’t give them a slap on the wrist and let them back out any too soon.
Thank you, officers! ?
It’s a shame this happened but it’s nice to see the police ? diligently working until all suspects were apprehended. Hope the courts keep them locked up for a ĺong long time.
