I'm reopening this thread because, unfortunately, there was a very serious incident on the same block as #4. There were two male residents and one female. They were accosted after they pulled into the garage and were unloading groceries. They left the garage doors open while doing so and two men came up with guns. While robbing the trio, one of the male residents was shot and killed. This happend at noon today.

No further details at this time but this is a definite confirmation that there was a robbery and killing. Please be VERY vigilant, there are a lot of people in town as a result of the fiesta and there is somone also doing armed home invasions lakeside as has been reported earlier.

Please do not post rumor, only information gained first-hand. Apparently, the survivors gave the police a description of the killers, if you have access to that description, please post it here.

Everyone, please be VERY vigilant about who is on the street, who might be following you home from shopping, etc. Pull in your garage, close the doors before unlocking your car or getting out of it.

Lakesidecrimewatch is reporting it as they, meaning more than one when there was only one robber. They also report that "they" tried to steal a womans car. I think lakesidecrimewatch needs to get it's facts straight. The correct version as reported in the Guadalajara Reporter is:

John why do you think there is a "correct" version? There were people on the street and they saw what they saw. This is what happen when crimes are reported various witnesses see different things. The MP or police will say what they want to say, they sometimes do not release all the facts as they may get in the way of the investigation.
You have to take in all the versions and let them decant themselves, it takes time to find out what happens.
The Guadalajara reporter reported what the police and the MP told them at the time, things change.
You notice that neither one of them gave a good description of the man since in their version there was only one suspect.
People who were around saw two people, only the future will tell how many were involved.
