Has Waukegan become so dangerous that an adult cannot even sit inside there car before midnight in a residential part of this city (which is not
a problem neighborhood) and be attacked? Allegedly attacked by a wandering group of urban nomads, one of whom was weilding a gun and used it?
Now the 42 yr old man is lying in critical condition in the hospital?
This in the depth of winter? What will the heat of summer bring?
I wonder if this alleged attack was "gang related", as these newspaper articles make no mention of this.
Also, I wonder if the man alleged attacked had some connection with those who allegedly attacked him?
I wonder if we who live here will ever hear the full story about this very disturbing and frightening incident, reported in the banner headline
story on the front page of The News-Sun on January 27,2010.
This kind of story has a huge, negative effect how Waukegan is viewed by many others in our region about even wanting to come here.
This is a fact, like it or not. Waukegan has a huge PR problem because many do not feel as though they would be safe in this city.
You have to wonder, with stories like this, are they right?
