Police believe the stabbing took place in front of 732 Willow Road, a small strip mall anchored by Donut Delite across from the VA Hospital.
I hate to say it, but if I had to bet on who the suspect is, I’d say it was somebody from the homeless center across the street and not anybody from EPA. That homeless center at the VA has been a magnet for crime ever since it went in. I don’t know why our council members look the other way and pretend crime there isn’t an issue.
