what surprises me (probably shouldnt) is how coordinated the bust seemed. before it happened i swear i saw cops and camera crews talking in the municipal parking lot behind the stores. and what took so long? they seemed to interview alot of people and hang around for hours.

anyway maybe this means the vacuum place can go now? used bookstore anyone? its right across the road from crossroads..

wow even more coordinated on tape then what i actually saw in person. who btw is that guy in the suit they interviewed? never really got a close up of a philly drug bust before. is that how they usually go down? with such cooperation between police and news org (for that oh so important exclusive?)

anyway as i said before, good get rid of this guy, lets build a real store. this isnt 1950 anymore, theres no real need for a store just for vacuums...

Apparently he was not selling just vacuums!

The guy in the suit is Inspector Robert Snyder.

Funny, how the coordination of channel 3's just happening to be there for the bust is reminiscent of how they just happened to be at the bust at Argentos a few months ago. Looked perfectly orchestrated..made me think it was a set up.
Good thing no one watches 3 anyway.
