They stopped this guy in front of Kenny's shop! :lol:

I went to Logan's with the kids, swung by Kenny's and he told me about it.

Checked the car out,
it was obvious he'd hit some people.

While I was looking at the car there was a woman taking cell phone pictures.

I asked if it was her car, she told me it wasn't hers - it was her son's girlfriend's mom's car. (get all that? :lol:) When I asked what happened she said that there were some kids trying to beat up her son and gf.

Her other son was there and told me that his brother and brother's gf were trying to leave the mall when this group started beating on the car and that the damage to the car was from them beating on it. His story didn't explain how five people were ran over.

The guy that followed the car on a motorcycle while on the phone with the cops saw it all unfold. Said there was an argument outside, there were people around the car, the car drove off, turned around, then drove through the crowd of people. Dude said the car was doing 30-35MPH when he hit them.

Will be interesting to see if they release video footage of the incident.

This mall is the only one left in Augusta. The other mall we had was shut down because the crap that was happening there. People just wouldn't shop there.

Augusta Mall has been getting progressively worse over the years. There was a guy at Sears to get holiday pictures with his family, went to the bathroom and didn't return. He was jumped and beaten by three guys in the bathroom - IN SEARS.

Kenny and I made a trip to Radio Shack for red LEDs and ended up in the middle of about 20 of'm ready to fight. When we realized what was going on we just stopped and waited for it to unfold. :lol: Damn Kenny even broke out the cell to shoot video. :lol: "thumbsup"

It's only going to get worse once school lets out. :roll:
 
God damn Jason... this why you moving from Agusta? lol Would make me move too. That is why I left West Phoenix when I was a kid.
 
Bad thing about the situation is that the mall tries to control the info that gets out about what happens there.

The dude that was beaten in Sears...not many people were aware of it and you didn't hear anything about it until locals started questioning things.

It happened on November 23rd. The article in the paper appeared December 5th.

Reality is that the mall didn't want negative publicity during the holiday season. :roll:
 
I've got video of the felony stop they did on the car with the guy that ran them over and I went to the mall and shot some video of people getting loaded into the ambulance including a infant:shock: I don't think the child was hurt but rather the mother. After about 4-5 minutes of filming I was told to leave:ror: I'll try and get it up on youtube tonight;-)

And I did get video of that day in the mall with Jason as well!
 
That "told to leave" part cracks me up.

They also told the NBC news crew to leave. They didn't even get footage.

They're trying to keep all the crap that's happening there silent so they don't lose more business.

Here ya go, this is exactly why Augusta Mall is trying to squelch the media knowledge and coverage of what happens there - discussion about Regency Mall.

http://www.deadmalls.com/malls/regency_mall.html

One last potential reason for the mall's demise was an incident that occurred back in 1986. A sixteen-year old woman was abducted from the Regency Mall parking lot, raped, and shot in the head four times. The murderer was caught, sentenced to death, only to have his sentence stayed indefinitely due to the mental illness of the criminal. The crime attracted a media frenzy that focused on the lax security at the mall which was the turning point of the public's perception regarding the shopping complex. At the time, the mall was still thriving, but continued attention rightfully brought on by the media of subsequent crimes at the complex eventually assisted in slowly bringing the life of the Regency Mall to an end.

By keeping it hush, they actually give those bangers a safe haven to keep up their dirty deeds. . .
That's multiple felonies - @ local mall? F'n crazy days.
 
Same thing has happened here in KC with the malls.

Only 3 left of about 10. Most recent death was Bannister Mall. Shootings, Kidnappings, Gang fights, stabbings, Murders. Same thing there as well, they tried their best to sweep it under the rug. The only time I heard most of the dirt was when I talked to the cops.

Heck, the gold tooth displayed moron that stole my car from my driveway ran IN, yes INTO, the mall to avoid the cops after getting pulled over in it! And surprise, the cops never caught him.

I feel your pain guys, it sucks to see a neighborhood go down hill. I have a front row seat here and it sucks!
 
Sounds like Gunspoint (Greenspoint) Mall here in Houston. Even the major retailers have abandoned the mall because of the crime. The Woodlands Mall is 25 miles north of Houston and I even feel on edge whenever I go there with the wife and daughter. We won't shop any further south than that (all the outlets are up in Conroe anyway).
 
Dudes, I'm dang glad I haven't heard of any bad crap about any of the 3 malls around here. They have Dick's sporting goods at 2 of them and the I store at the other. would suck if I had to quit going.
