Armed Robbery in the 3900 Block of State Street. SBPD searching for suspects in the upper State Street area possibly heading southeast in the 3600 Block of State Street.
I don’t want to say exactly where they are searching but it seems there is attention around the 3600 Block of State street then Ontare Road.
He probably got them from your house.
This is what to expect when only criminals have guns. Enjoy the escalation in crime and be sure to run for cover.
