News @ 11. Not kidding. My kids were there. He was a long time associate of my baby's mom. Apparently he walked up to the back door and walked away before she got to the door. She went into the kitchen and when she walked back out of the kitchen he was pacing up and down the alley. She thought it was weird but didn't pay attention. Next thing she knows there's a gunshot and a dead guy in the back yard. Now I need a ride home because my car is in the back yard, which is taped off, and she can't back out without running over a dead body anyway. This is fucked up. Glad she didn't let him in though.
Kids didn't see it. They're pretty clueless. I'm just glad he didn't do it in my house in their presence or harm them. Gotta go. Talk to you guys Monday.
That is a very random thing to have happen. Although, it did happen so it wasn't so random. I hope your kids are young enough to not understand what happened. also, I hope they bring back the post numbers as my scrolling though pages misses them.
F-upped up stories like this are not that uncommon. I remember a lady sitting by me on a bus told a similar such story, of how the father of her two kids blew his head off on her front lawn while the kids were watching.
I'm glad everyone else is ok. When I was younger our neighbor gassed himself in his car right across the street in broad daylight.
