ReplyThey must have been seen exiting the city in at least one of the myriad surveillance cameras stalking the streets. Hopefully the police can release some footage.

ReplyI'm betting that these two kids were firing the bb guns in the street. I still don't know if that would've been grounds to have them confiscated, but that's the only thing I can guess *might* remotely justify confiscating/destroying the weapons.

No, "we don't." I was just curious what he took. Sometimes you see these crooks steal cash, other times it's cigarettes and lotto tickets, and still other times it's ATM Machines. Does that satisfy your pesky query?

Reply"They voluntarily surrendered the BB guns to officers for proper disposal and were released with a verbal warning."
Verbal warning for what? They didn't break the law as far as I can tell.

ReplySo apparently chief Studt was offered the job in Juneau but declined, citing his 2016 plans for retirement. He's a boss, so I was pretty sure they would pick him, but I'm now wondering why he applied if he wasn't planning on working there at all.

ReplyI wish them luck. I didn't think physical bookstores could survive anymore, but they seem to have some unique features to their store that might help make it survive the test of time(and the internet).

I don't have a problem with people having or smoking marijuana, provided they're not in a vehicle. I think the guy smoking a blunt at Adams and Maple was pretty harmless, the dude smoking in the parking structure less so because he was in a vehicle.
