That suspect has been identified as Marquanvius Jones, 30-years-old. He’s facing charges for second-degree murder, attempted second-degree murder and assault with a deadly weapon. His mugshot has not been released at this time. He too was shot and injured.
Three bystanders were also struck in the shooting: A 25-year-old man, who remains in serious condition; a 22-year-old woman and 4-year-old boy were treated and released, per TPSO.
TPSO says their investigation so far reveals Jones allegedly fired into the crowd and Myers fired back. Officials say the argument started over a request for a ride.
Police determined that the 33-year-old forced his way into his ex-girlfriend’s apartment and assaulted her new boyfriend, the armed 27-year-old. He then shot the ex-boyfriend, in “self-defense,” according to GVRU.
Once detectives completed their interview, they released the shooter from police custody.

(Continued from Part 4.) Practical Hunting Gear The basic gear I carry, regardless of season, is listed below. Clothing that fits and is proper for the environment you’re in. This includes a hat. Always have a change of socks. Firearm and spare ammunition. Every single rifle and shotgun I own has an elastic buttstock ammo carrier as well as a sling with ammunition loops sewn in. (Butler Creek makes a great sling with ammo loops.) I like these because accessing spare rounds is more convenient and it doesn’t require me to carry so much ammo in my pack. Knife. I …

(Continued from Part 3.) Pros and Cons of Raising Animals for Food As with anything in life, there are pros and cons. Below, I have compiled a list of my personal pros and cons when it comes to raising animals for food. Pros You can control what variety/species of animals you want to raise to give you the most amount of meat. You can choose the type of meat you want to have in your household. If you like peacock meat, you can raise it. If you like ostrich eggs, you can raise it. With chickens, you can control the …

Alphabet has lined up banks to sell a rare 100-year bond, stepping up a borrowing spree by Big Tech companies racing to fund their vast investments in AI this year.
As others have observed, few companies from 1926 have survived 100 years without completely evaporating (e.g., Texaco) or defaulting on their bonds (GM). How many tech companies of 2000 are anything like their former importance? A few. Many others are either gone or of such limited importance as to be unrealistic payers of bond interest.

(Continued from Part 2.) Water for the Flock For the first several years of raising fowl, I had a 20-gallon rubber water tote in the chicken coop. Every couple of days, I would have to dump all the water out and refill it because the chickens would sit on the edges of the tote and defecate into the water. In the heat of summer, the water would turn green within a day or two, spoiling all the fresh water. I was wasting more water and time than necessary.

The post The Editors’ Quote Of The Day: appeared first on SurvivalBlog.com.
I used to own a number of belts. Duty belts, dress belts, gun belts, casual belts and everyday belts. This morning, I was down to two. A dress belt I used on dressy occasions, and an everyday belt that held the Model 60 on my waist.
That dress belt was bought, as I recall, sometime around 2004. It hasn't been worn since I retired in 2019. All the other belts that own, (excepting the competition rig that carries my Colt holster), went away over the years. So, I'm down to three belts. The dressy one, the everyday rig, and the competition rig.
Today, I had to go to a funeral. I put on slacks and got out the dress bel. Put it on and when I went to tighten it, broke that sumbitch in half. It had dry-rotted. Just damn. I put on the everyday belt and went to the funeral.
I need to go buy a dress belt, something that looks better than the plain, old everyday rig I normally wear. And that pisses me off to no end. It's just aggravating. Now that I think about it, my everyday belt is about five years old. It might use an update too. I guess it's time to go down to Boot Barn or Cavender's and see what they have hanging in the racks.
And that's where I am with that.
