No laughing matter here, folks. A group of armed gunmen have been prowling Uptown and robbing bar patrons as they walk down the street. Twelve robberies have been reported in the last 3 weeks, including one guy who was hit twice on the same night. “After the first robbery, he went home and got more cash, which the robbers promptly took a few hours later.” Yikes. I think I’ll stay up here in Northeast, where all the bartenders pack heat and I know they’ve got my back.

Perhaps good news though, police recently arrested four suspects in those robberies.

I say abandon hip, yet crime-riden, Uptown and stick with the Olive Garden in Eden Prairie!

I’m starting a community crime watch patrol for Uptown, any volunteers?
