It’s without a doubt that the current recession coupled with holiday stresses is encouraging the drastic actions that we’ve seen occurring in our local community. Today’s Richmond Times Dispatch reports of another shooting incident in Southside, but thankfully without injury this time.


A Chinese food delivery driver escaped injury last night when he was shot at during a robbery in South Richmond.

Richmond police Capt. Paul Kiniry said the robber appeared to have something other than lead pellets in his shotgun when he fired a single round, striking but not shattering one of the windows of the driver’s car.

The robbery occurred at 7 p.m. (Sunday, November 28, 2010) in the 800 block of Blandy Avenue, near the intersection of Jahnke and German School roads.

The robber escaped with an undetermined amount of cash. Police said the suspect was described only as a black male whose face was covered with a mask. Anyone with information can call Crime Stoppers anonymously at (804) 780-1000.
