Default Police at Sabal Chase Pool at 5:30 AM

I was driving home from a sleep study at 5:30 this morning and 6 police cars with their lights flashing and 2 rescue vehicles were in the parking lot of the swimming pool. There was 1 car at the mailbox parking and a man was standing outside his car.

I didn't see any police moving around or see if they were in or out of their cars.

Everyone stay safe and think safety even if we live in 'the bubble'.


Make it a great Friday!!!!

Lets not panic. This could have been a false alarm. Wait for the facts before selling your house.

If it is attached to your car key, it could cost from 3 to 6 hundred dollars to replace it. For my car, it is only a 285 dollar replacement cost.

At 5:45 this morning I was woken up by the noise of a helicopter. So I go outside to get the newspaper and the copter came back over my house. Its searchlight was sweeping back and forth over the ground and when it lighted me up it was bright enough to blind me. The light seemed to pause over me for a second or two, then went back to searching.

The copter had an 'odd' noise to it, didn't sound like the usual life-flight helicopter that operates out of Wildwood.

Spoke with an offical at the scene. There was a male victim of a gun shot. He wouldn't say or didn't know if it was self inflicted or a shooting, nor did he say if the person was alive. The area by the shooting was blocked off as they were waiting for a clean up crew.In looking at the scene and the fact there was very little activity there I would guess the victim is alive as there was no active investigation and I was there about 7:30.AM. I'm only reporting what I was told and saw.

It will not be in the paper if it was a suicide. They do not print information about suicides.

There was a helicopter ( life Flight) that landed in the are of the Firehouse on Bonita or on the fairway on Kenya # 6 at 5:45 this morning. It was on the ground for a short time then took off. ( Not exactly positive of the exact landing are but in this general area)

The paper may not specifically say suicide in the story but they have reported the events. I can recall a couple of them in the past year or so that were in the paper and were suicides.

Good going cub reporters we need you because the Daily sun certainly will not respond quickly or completely.

so sad to hear about the event though. My best friend put a gun to his temple. Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Every moment of life is precious and we should all embrace it.

One of the infrequent times I totally agree with you.
