Boy, 14, arrested in stabbing of Springs security guard PLN # 16

In the article Boy, 14, arrested in stabbing of Springs security guard, I thought that it was very unusual to see that a 14-year-old would do something so serious. In this article a 14-year-old boy has been arrested in connection with the stabbing of a Colorado Springs security guard. The police said this week that the boy was arrested Friday and taken to the Spring Creek Youth Services Center in Colorado Springs. The boy’s name has not been revealed. He is suspected of stabbing 47-year-old Gerry Gozar several times in a downtown parking garage. It is interesting to see how young people are getting in the crime rates. I thought that I would never do anything like that, and it is very affective to me because it is such a serious deal. This could show the world how people get disciplined for all of there harsh actions.

Man accused of killing dog with arrows PLN # 15

In the article Man accused of killing dog with arrows, it was so sad to read about the animal abuse that is going on in the world today. The name of the abuser is Zackary Scott Ruszka. He was charged with the underage use of alcohol. He lived with his girlfriend and her family, who had left him in charge of their home and dog when they went to California for a family emergency, and that’s when he shot the dog. This is a perfect example of how people are hard to trust when it comes to watching after your house along with your pets. How this personally affects me is that I need to chose the people that I trust in the future as well as now.

Night worker injured in snowmobile crash PLN # 14

In the article Night worker injured in snowmobile crash, it is so crazy to see how easily things can go wrong. In this article, a 19-year-old worker on an overnight shift was seriously injured after his snowmobile crashed into a tree. life really was short for this 19-year-old (name not released), and it seems like there is more and more that goes wrong for many young people everyday. If only there was a way to stop all of these tragic events. This affects me personally because I think that what if that was my brother or my sister or even my parents, and how I would never be the same after that. I hope that this is affective to the world and that the world realizes that life is short, and we all need to look after each other in order to be safe.

Hit-and-run driver injures woman PLN#13

In the article Hit-and-run injures a women, I thought that it was sad to hear about some innocent person getting hit by a driver who wasn’t paying any attention to “the rules of the road”. The victims name was not revealed by the authorities, but they did mention that she was a 24-year-old. It happened on Havana Street on a Friday evening. The 24-year-old victim was found lying in the middle of the street unconscious. This is a sad example of how many people are so dishonest that they would leave someone in the middle of the street that is in a critical condition. Personally I believe that if I were to be hit by a car and then that car drove off, that I would be incredibly angry with them and would want to make sure that they were brought to justice. I can believe that people think that they can get away with something as serious as this. This is a good example to the world of how many people are dishonest about very critical things such as a hit-and-run.
