About Me

My photo
Durham, NC, United States
As a photojournalist my principal interests are spot news, fires, etc. I also like to see the humor in everyday situations. In my 42 years as a photojournalist I have seen a lot of people die. First, during the Salvadoran Civil War, and since then, on some of the 'mean streets' of my adopted hometown......still, a great little town all the same!

Durham cops find carjacked kids in minutes !!!

After a frantic search Durham police found the missing Acura in the 400 block of Green St. with the kids still strapped safely inside. The carjacked kids were taken from the parents when the SUV was stolen on Avondale Dr near the old K Mart on Foushee St. Officers were confronted initially with a frantic mom who spoke little or no English. But after learning that a cell phone was in the vehicle cops called the 'carrier' who was able to track the phone to Green St. Police converged on the scene and found the SUV almost immediately. A K9 was brought in quickly and followed a track briefly but the suspects escaped. When reunited with their kids the mom kept repeating 'thank you. thank you, thank you'
