Man, 59, 900 block of Valley Street near Latrobe Homes

Another man armed with a "knifelike weapon" shot by police! This guy was on Callow Avenue.

Gregg Bernstein is going to try another case-- this one = murder.

Prosecutors say they won't seek the death penalty* against the alleged killers of Cherrie Gammon. Why that would have even been on the table I'm not sure, was there a videotaped confession or DNA evidence?

What the fark? Three nine-year-olds and an eight-year-old were arrested at Morrell Park Elementary/Middle School and taken away in handcuffs. As IV posted, Keith Daniels interviewed the adorable little members of the Killer Hit Squad gang, one of whom allegedly held a kid's head underwater and threatened to drown him. "I didn't aggravate no one or assault no one," says little Mackenna, adding, "I was taught to hit somebody back when they hit me, so I did." More from the Sun

Good for the police arresting those kids. No, it's not like the Mungo case, Mungo was sitting on a bike. These kids could have drowned or decapitated a child. It would have been better to arrest them at home, perhaps, but given these "parents" were on tv crying victim and leaving their kids with grandparents, maybe that wasn't an option. That must have been schweet for the victims of these bullies to see them led out in handcuffs. IMO it should happen more often.

Re: Cherrie Gammon, it's a federal case and not a state one so no silly rules about DNA or video taped confessions.
