I used to live in Darby, one block from the boundary with Philadelphia. The trolly went right by the front door.

I hated it there. Dirty streets with papers flying everywhere. The subway took you quickly down town. A couple of times kids would run up and down the car snatching hats off people's heads.

Independence Hall was nice, and Valley Forge wasn't too far away.

We would go out to Brandywine Battlefield for picnics and sit under the tree where Lafayette recovered from his wounds.

That kind of thing happens in all cities. The Philadelphia Special Victims Unit is top notch and i worked with them on several occasions. They will get the guy.

It is odd that it was in broad daylight, however he did drag her to cover before committing the rest of the act.

Captain Darby and the rest are nothing short of outstanding.
