The victim must have said something during the robbery ... Creeps.
This stuff hurts so much because there are good people living around there. Lots of well cared for homes. It's sickening.

Being a tough guy idiot (ESPECIALLY in front of your kids) and engaging a wacko driver usually isn't an intelligent decision (and it wasn't in this case) ... The Martinez/Colon clan should have just ignored the erratic driver and let them go on their merry way.

Way to blame the victim. While I agree that it's not smart to engage a rude driver, the greater fault is with the whacko driver who RAN OVER the victim.

The victim and his big-mouthed wife's tough-guy ego put themselves in a position to get hurt - and they did. I know these types ... they're just as dangerous as the crazy who ran the husband over.
The man should have taken control of the situation by keeping his wife in the car.


I sometimes used to get myself in these idiotic situations when I was a young man, but luckily came away unscathed and luckily I never hurt anybody. These two should be old enough to know better, especially with kids in the vehicle ... they never grew out of their macho stage.

Not surprising in such a drug-riddled area.

I agreed with you, but mouthing off at someone should not get you killed.

Putting on moderator hat.

It's fine to post crime on this thread but it is not fine to continually comment that the victims somehow deserved what happened to them because they happened to live there/be standing there, etc. No one deserves to be killed or hurt simply because they were in the wrong place at the wrong time and there's absolutely a racist undertone in saying that, shich is not appreciated and more importantly is against the TOS for this site.

Fox Chase:

This is usually a safe, quiet neighborhood. Shootings are not the norm.


North Philly (10th and Indiana):

Wow ... twenty shots fired on a residential street.
