Have they caught him yet?

They did! I wish they would have alerted the neighborhood. If our neighbor didn't tell us, we wouldn't have known and it was literally in our backyard!

THEY CAUGHT HIM. Landed the helicopter in the clearing behind our neighbor's house. What a crazy day!!!

Helicopters still in the air over our house. The woods are the only thing between us and Fairground Market. Lock your doors and get your guns.

Stay safe!

Anything new??? Description?

He'll be in rough shape if he makes it through the woods to our line of houses in Prospect.
