On Monday, May 20, 2013 at approximately 8:20 p.m., Antioch Police responded to a report of a shots fired near the 4600 block of Menona Drive. Upon arrival, police learned that a 50-year-old male Antioch resident was out for a walk in the Wild Horse neighborhood when he was confronted by an armed robber. The robber demanded money and then shot the victim before fleeing the area.
The victim was treated and released from a local hospital for a non life threatening gunshot wound. The armed robber was described as a black male adult and in the company of a second black male as well as one black female. The responsible parties fled the scene in what was described as a white or light gray Pontiac (possibly a Grand Am) with a rear spoiler.
Anyone with information regarding this case is encouraged to contact the Antioch Police Department at 778-2441.
This is nothing compared to when more criminals who have just been released from prison and into so called “community help centers” invade Antioch.
This is coming very very soon. Council has allowed these “community help centers”, which basically are half way houses for moderate to high level threat criminals, to establish their services within 1000 feet of any school, park, or senior housing.
Muggings, assaults, robberies.. will go hand in hand with the morning coffee.
All of these changes are from the Council and Mayor YOU voted for. “Zero Tolerance for Crime”. … w o w
