"Thresholds" is an organization that helps people with mental problems and addictions. It's a great organization that offers a lot of resources for them. I doubt very seriously that the men who attacked the man was a "member" of Thresholds. They probably were just preying on the weak...nothing new there.
ReplyDelete"The purported lady-of-the-evening, who was allegedly stopping random cars, was seen swinging a black purse and wearing a white baseball cap and blue jeans."...sure hope she was wearing something else too:)
Thanks for the updates Timothy:)
You're welcome T.!
ReplyDeleteRegarding the saleslady, people don't always give complete descriptions of what the suspects are wearing. But we are talking about an alleged hooker, so.... :-)
Up until midnight, more random calls will be added to this post.

ReplyDeleteI have heard of Thresholds. Tonight was the first time I have heard of any violence associated with the business, but there a lot of missing persons calls from that address. Does Thresholds provide housing for their clients?
That could be one of the buildings they own but generally, they put people in SRO's, The YMCA and in studio apartments where they have a deal set up with the management. This was probably one of their supportive housing buildings.
ReplyDeleteThis post of multiple crime reports is awesome! I love this blog.

ReplyDeleteThresholds is utter shit. They give criminals free apartments and other bananas, then they loiter all day in trendy neighborhoods begging for drug/booze money.
ReplyDeleteShut down their funding!
