what? crime happens in clovis?

shocking! crime doesn't just happen in "bad" parts of town like the west side or downtown.

a bank was robbed this morning in clovis. shots fired, lots of police officers, high speed chase through several school zones and by the university. 5 schools placed on lockdown, although it's since been lifted.

suspects still at large.

of course, clovis people will say, "the thiefs were from fresno." which they may have been.

(couldn't find a good, accurate link to the story on local newsmedia websites. maybe i'll update one later.)

Well, if the Clovis people don't like it, maybe they should move their town elsewhere. Git!

yeah, bekah was leaving her 7am class at fresno state and saw the chase and witnessed the shots. very strange. by the time she was done and ready to leave school so many streets were closed that she had to detour through some ag fields.

Clovis was where, as a bambulance driver, I showed up on a scene where the mom had been holding the kid down for the dad to beat him and another of the kids showed up with a potted plant and smashed the back of ol' pop's head.

Yee haw!
