Two White Females

May 22, 2:49 PM
 
 
Now that was not hard to print at all.  Why is this the first time that a news organization has mentioned this in a story about the Federal Hill attack?  The police gave me this information without any hesitation.

Just to get you up to speed,  the police are looking for two women in connection to the beating and stabbing described in the initial Federal Hill beating email.  These women are white and "One was wearing a black dress and the other was wearing jeans and a tank top.  She had brown hair and weighed about 160-170 pounds and was 5'9."

So since that is now out of the way let us take a closer look at what happened that night in Federal Hill. WJZ is now reporting that before this incident there were a lot of other incidents which lead up to the bus getting hit, and the attack we have been talking about for the last few days.  Here are some more specifics from WJZ:

"I saw a fight break out. There was a lot of jawin' goin' on and pushing and shoving and then this girl came off the sidewalk and hit this guy and coldcocked him and then everything broke out," he said.

Leahy said there were four or five separate fights up and down the street.  It's unclear who said what and why.

"Two girls were right here on top of each other, fighting each other.  I couldn't believe it.  There were actually girls fighting.  And then it moved all the way up the street," he said.  "At one point, one of the girls got back into her car, backed up here and tried to leave the scene and hit a city bus."

"There was a mix of black and white and guys and girls," Leahy said.  "I've been in and out of this area for 10 or 12 years.  It just seems like it's getting younger and it seems like everyone's a little more on edge around here."


So not only was there a random attack but there was also wild brawling going on before the attack happened.  What a Preakness night it was!  I would expect more media coverage.
