Default Shooting at Applebee's in Lady Lake this morning. (Tuesday).

This involved a fatality and an argument but the facts are under investigation. One of those involved had a concealed gun carry permit.

Applebee’s patron shoots, kills man inside The Villages restaurant, police say

The lack of facts 30 hours later is interesting.

Participants of the outdoor shooting is still walking around free.

Check your chamber.

Is Applebees competing with Margarita Republic for the most dangerous place in The Villages?

In NYC this would’ve never made the paper. Shows you how rare these occurrences are and how safe TV is.

Bingo.

Sad, but true.

I recall a few weeks back when someone got arrested and charged with a 3rd degree felony (in Lady Lake I believe though I may be wrong on the location) for shoplifting 2 containers of ice cream and one of whipped cream from a convenience store. Cops would be guffawing loudly if such a thing were even reported the great majority of the areas most of us come from.

This death (even though we don’t know the particulars yet) is regrettable. But everything is relative. Law Enforcement will solve this promptly and the law will function as it should.In that respect, Villagers are lucky people.

To carry or not to carry? Will be debated on the next 50 posts.

Applebee's is open until 1 am, except Friday & Saturday, when it stays open until 2 am.

I’ll remember that next time I’m craving some lousy food after midnight, which will be never.

According to Google maps, Applebees is open until 1:00 am. Hubby and I were there yesterday afternoon when the remote news teams were setting up for their reporting of the incident. One of the reporters told us what was going on when we asked him.

My older brother and his wife have eaten at that Applebee's. They like their food. Sad that this happened. It will probably take a while for the facts to get out as I expect lawyers have been hired who are telling those involved to keep quiet as the police investigate.

This is SUPPOSED to be a retirement community! This is not what I envisioned when moving here 11 years ago. The direction this community is taking saddens me.
