    Really!!!!! Yee haw, yippie ki yay, it’s The Wild West Out There. Seriously, get camera systems, good locks and doors and if you feel capable, a firearm. And get some training with that firearm, any idiot can just buy one. And make good decisions even if you have one, five guys usually means just hand over your stuff.

        Im surprised they gave the color of the suspects. I know Bart and some cities like San Francisco and most news agency’s can’t or won’t name the Color of the suspects.

          We believe in using race as a descriptor when there is an immediate threat to public safety. We do not believe in using race as a weapon against a people, so our use is carefully evaluated prior to posting.

      Just keep the same ignorant energy when a pedophile/sexual predator article gets posted. I hate people like you.

    I live in Martinez, Ca. This came to me by NewBreak. There is no other news about this other tham 4 Juveniles being arrested for robbery nearly 20 mile away in Brentwood some time ago. This is racist news.

      Looks like this site knows more about what’s happening in your hometown than you do.

    Is this one of those “follow home” robberies? How did they know the guy was wearing a Rolex? 5 heavily armed guys in a car? It’s getting bad
