Kingsland population declines by three overnight.

This just in from my housekeeper. I can't actually find a media report, but here's what she's telling me she saw last night then heard of on the morning T.V. news. At approximately 7:00 PM last night, two people drove up to the SeaParc Apartments in Kingsland (off of Hwy 40, just west of the Ace hardware store.) They got out, went straight to a particular apartment, where they shot two of the occupants, a man and a woman dead (died on the scene). As the two gunmen were leaving, another car drove up to the complex. The assailants immediately shot the two occupants of that car, then fled the area. Those two victims were life flighted to Jax (Shand's I would imagine.) My housekeeper saw the medevac flight land and depart from the Winn-Dixie parking lot. One of those two victims subsequently died. The condition of the other is unknown to me at this time. It has all the ear-marks of a drug thing. More as it becomes available.

It's on T & G website podcast.

I listened to this on the T & G site this morning. They also spoke about someone shot at the Camden Oaks Trailer Park, same day. Also told about a 14 year old that was killed while riding a four wheeler, which probably happened on Friday or Saturday.

Yeah, I always forget about that T&G podcast. That's a great T&G feature.

Seems like Kingsland Chief Griffis has his hands full. First Noble, now three others dead in what is being said to be a drug deal gone wrong.

My advice to wanna-be-drug-dealers. Pay the man his money or you may not have an opportunity too. If your intent is to steal from drug dealers, I would suggest finding another prey.

Why is it that the first conclusion drawn is that it is a drug deal gone bad? Here's a novel idea, why don't we allow the Police the opportunity to do their jobs and wait for the facts to come in before making our own assessments as to whether it was a drug deal gone bad. It could have just as easily been a love triangle or these days it could be that somebody looked at somebody wrong. At the end of the day only a few people know what happened. Let's wait and see what the Police uncover. In the mean time my heart goes out to the victim's families.

Well, it could be that the folks in the apartment welched on their Avon lady, but my money is on drugs.
