———- Forwarded message ———- Dear HOA and Community Leaders:
It appears we have a serial stabber in our midst, who has stabbed three black men (all of whom are recovering) within the past week. The crimes appear to be racially motivated, and this person has apparently stabbed people in Flint, MI (some of whom died). The news release from the police dept. is pasted below, and attached. I would appreciate it if you would post this to your respective email lists, HOA discussion boards, etc. However, please be assured the police are handling this so they can bring this nut to justice. Thanks! Ken Reid Member Leesburg Town Council here’s a link to the Channel 7 story: http://www.tbd.com/articles/2010/08/va-attacks-investigated-for-link-to-mich-killer-996.html
