@Citizen Can’t really tell the difference they all dress the same,wear the same hair styles and they’re usually black so good luck
It's always these yns
Charge the mother for reckless endangerment... She left an unattended vehicle with a child in it as it was running.. If you have to leave a vehicle... TAKE THE KEYS, don't leave it running.. Now charge these two as adults.. Unauthorized Use, and kidnapping.. No bail until their court dates.. Crime will not go down until there is accountability.. The other option is post better pictures of these guys and Have the Police promise not to prosecute anyone that beats a " Posted" criminal.. Street Justice might be the only way to fix a broken system..
