“Whoever will go into a neighborhood and attack a youth center, supported by this department, of using innovative ideas so a crime never occurs, never appears on a weekly crime report. I don’t know what kind of person does that,” said Atlanta’s interim Police Chief Darin Schierbaum.
“I see a lot of kids because they have a lot of stuff going on,” said one neighbor, who told FOX 5 that it’s the kids who are hurt by their act of violence.
