This is my local peelot. Used to be pretty decent for a p lot, but has gone downhill in the 16 yrs it has been open. And now an armed security guard. I ain’t been there in over 2 yrs. Lot a beggars and homeless in rvs, cars, trucks and such. Article don’t say if they were drivers, but time of incident kinda makes me think they may be a team.
1 dead, 1 injured in Avondale truck stop shooting Sunday

That sucks. That picture makes the place look really clean and inviting.
At least the suspect was killed. Well done armed security guard. You saved the taxpayers a lot of money to not house another thug.misterG, allniter, stevep1977 and 20 others Thank this. -
Tried to rob two men inside the truck stop. The dead guy wasn't too bright.
misterG, allniter, RedForeman and 9 others Thank this. -
I always wondered if those armed truck stop security guards ever actually shoot anyone. The ones I have seen usually seemed kinda “low rent.” I could never picture them actually saving the day.

Man, it's getting to the point where you have to be ready for an attack all the time!!!

And people wonder why i advocate everyone get a CCW....this world is getting bonkers.
misterG, Woodys, Aamcotrans and 15 others Thank this. -
I don't understand why any business would allow homeless/beggars to accost their patrons right outside the front door. If they don't leave when told to, LEO should be called and they should be charged with trespassing. That is what LEO's are paid to do.

Keep Your Head On A Swivel.
I been doing such since 2010 and increased since '19.
NEVER, Anymore, think "It's okay, nothing to see here"!! -
It started as a Williams ts. Pretty nice inside. Neighborhood has always been bad. After Pelot got it, it got bad. Recreational Reptiles, beggars and assorted bottomfeeding types....
Oh yeah, if you wonder why it is called pelot, just take a wiff, it never rains there and 6000 gallons of Fabrese would be a feeble attempt -
Looks like Luckett ran out of luck. One less sufferer of Absent Daddy Syndrome to deal with.
RedForeman, jsnell, Boondock and 1 other person Thank this.
