Go to class, practice at the range, get your CCW permit and put a stop to this type of nonsense.

This while that A2PD has a "person of interest" who has suddenly stopped committing physical crimes against female victims and has yet to be apprehended. YPSI bashing at its finest.

For Ypsilanti, this equals the Ann Arbor story about a lady who had vegetable plants stolen, not news anymore.

Someone is knocked down and robbed and all you want to do is make nasty remarks about their town or neighborhood? Why are people so darn cranky today?

Nothing much has changed, and we don't miss you - in fact, if you wouldn't have pointed it out, we never would have noticed....

45's are so outdated, they have things called Ipods nowadays ;)

What a damn shame, still day light and she gets knocked down and purse taken. Seems like somebody should have seen this happening. I'm so glad the woman wasn't injured.
