Sorry that this is the wrong place - please move or delete. But I just wanted to make my neighbors aware of another sad murder in the neighborhood. A young man was stabbed to death at about 7:30 pm yesterday (6/7) in the 1200 block of Simms Pl. NE. It happened in front of one of the vacant/foreclosed buildings on the block where a large group gathers every afternoon to drink and smoke weed. Oh well...
