Monday morning feel good stories
From Miami, Florida;
A 24-year-old man’s attempt at robbing three people Saturday night ended with him shot dead and his car crashed, cops say.
Miami police identified the man Sunday morning as Francisco Martinez Jr.
Investigators say Martinez was shot when he tried to rob three people at Northwest 22nd Avenue and 28th Street.
His car wound up in a front yard two blocks away, grill-to-porch with a house at 3034 NW 22nd Ave. That’s where police found Martinez when they answered a 10:57 p.m. call about a shot, unconscious man behind the wheel of a crashed car.
Miami Fire Rescue took Martinez in critical condition to Ryder Trauma Center at Jackson Memorial Hospital, where he eventually was pronounced dead.
From Washington, Missouri;
The reporting party told the dispatcher he had fired a gun into the floor as a warning shot to scare away the burglar, police said.
advertisementOfficers arrived on the scene and found a broken window and blood. The reporting party told police he had heard someone kicking the window and glass breaking.
At that point, he fired the gun into the floor and the suspect left the scene.
Based on the blood found at the scene, police said it was clear the suspect was cut and bleeding when the window was broken. Officers tracked the blood to the 300 block of Rolling Meadows Lane where it was reported a fight had broken out.
advertisementThe suspect from the burglary had been involved in a fight and was taken to Mercy Hospital Washington. Police contacted the man at the hospital.
The man, a 41-year-old Pacific resident, told police he had broken the glass. The man said he was looking for the resident on Rolling Meadows.
When he eventually found who he was looking for, the suspect got into a brief fight. Police said he fell and hit his hand and had to be taken to the hospital.

Another moron letting a “warning shot” go in an occupied space.
Warning shots, what a damned WASTE of perfectly good ammo!
One DOT for the day.
And the world is a more peaceful place……….now.
Do I dare go out on a limb and enquire if Mr Martinez Jr was here LEGALLY?
“Officers tracked the blood to the 300 block of Rolling Meadows Lane where it was reported a fight had broken out.” ?????
Snrrrttt!!! Okay, but he still tried the break-in thing, so he’s busted.
I see that Sister Mary Grace now has some reporters in terror of saying things unclearly, so no ‘reporting party’ is a substitute for ‘victim’ or ‘targeted person’. Sister Mary Grace has a large and very copy of the Oxford Unabridged somewhere in a box. It could easily be dropped on the tootsies of the wannabe-a-reporters who have low vocabulary skills.
“Miami police identified the man Sunday morning as Francisco Martinez Jr.”
Adios puto.
