Uh-oh, is this a myth buster? Crime happens in cities other than Vallejo?!?! I know a lot of bubbles have been burst with this one.

Well, I knew it wasn't going to last long with the proliferation of Richmond visitors in V-town, so here they are, startin' shite in adjacent communities. Shooting at the Guard armory, stabbing downtown, shufflin' all over with low pants and attitudes.

Better barricade your quaint town, Benicians! The gangstas from Richmond are headed your way.

[confused]

didn't this incident happen at 2:30 AM? Facts need to be checked.

[Think about it]

Trouble maker stabbing another trouble maker...big deal.

I believe you are correct. And there was quite a bit going on around 1st street last night.

You obviously aren't from around here. Benicia has always had its share of criminals and druggies. And guess what, they were/are home grown. Oh yeah, even their politicians end up in prison.

You're correct - I'm not from Benicia. I have had experience only with the *tourist* area with over-priced antique shops.

Your perception of Benicia is different from what the Chamber of Commerce puts forth.

Do you think the Benicia Chamber of Commerce is going to admit they have criminal problems? Are you for real? Like Napa, Benicia keeps its dirty little secrets on the "down low" because both cities depend on tourist dollars.

Tomada is a fine example of the home grown criminals we have.

Where are all our esteemed posters with their "sky is falling" mentality about Vallejo? Or perhaps they are stunned that crimes happen in other areas besides here.

Sometimes our nearby neighbors who sit on their their high horses and harshly judge us Vallejoans need to be reminded that crime can - and does - occur everwhere. Even in the quaint, sweetly appointed city of Benicia. Lest we forget...

Same old fight; different street, time, trouble and problems are so severe they are spreading from Richmond, Oakland, into Vallejo. The problem is if both of these guys would not of been running the streets in the wee hours of the morning; this would not of happened.

You must know to keep all of this trouble making in Vallejo, in Solano County; stab one another or shoot each other away from innocence people. OK?

Hey Rick, I heard they had a "drive-by" in Warren Arkansas: Jethro rode by on his mule and threw rocks at Ellie Mae. Wow, just think, they even have crime in the Ozarks!

Wannabe punks. Where they are going they will learn the real deal....the Vallejo way. Right?
Difference being they used knives and not Glocks.
Given the location and time, I'm sure alcohol was involved, the little man's brovado drug. These two and a couple others are on their way to County. Good job BPD.

It says 2:30 AM...unless they fixed their error, looks right to me.
