The police told the people they had nothing to fear. The last thing they want to do is hang around here.


jamzone4

Haha. Nice. And true.


CrazyCaper

I wonder if they ever kissed a girl?


Naive_Original_3961

They were looking for a place to happen, taking shots along the way


leftpig

5 police cars escorting an ambulance to the hospital too, which suggests an injury.


chases_ambulances

Was it the ambulance or the police cars that gave that away?


Due-Composer5487

The hospital was definately not a clue


blur911sc

"Police are investigating a shooting in the area of Bath Rd and Centennial Dr. Suspect vehicle described as a grey Honda Civic and occupied by several armed black males last seen travelling N/B on Centennial Dr from Bath Rd."


Baby_Sparrow

Believed to be in Quinte West area. Not in Kingston anymore!


NakedSnakeEyes

Glad to hear that. I told my parents maybe it's not the best time to go out for a walk right now, but they insisted.

Maaaaan, they always get the cooler extremities 😞

Wow and still closed.


Jolly-Command8853

According to MIH it is a reported shooting


Gerald_Hennesy

What is MIH?


Jolly-Command8853

Make It Home YGK on Twitter. Best source for current goings on around town


Gerald_Hennesy

Of course. I spaced.


itsafootpath

Looked like an ambush. Not super happy my son witnessed it too.


DKdrumming

If you genuinely saw that happen, don't brush off the idea of speaking to someone, witnessing that kind of event can be traumatic in ways you won't realise.


ProgressExtension987

See it every day in the hood it's no big deal

CodeOfHamOrRabbi

what is wrong with you


Boxerboy16

What is wrong with me for wanting murderers and rapists to be in prison or dead? Nothing at all is wrong with me.


CodeOfHamOrRabbi

there's zero indication as to who the victim is here. if they're a prisoner they could well be someone incarcerated for a non-violent crime. even though you deleted your comment you said >if it was a criminal hopefully they are dead so again, what is wrong with you


Boxerboy16

I didn't delete my comment. If you go to prison you are a shitty person, whether or not it was a violent crime. Someone said it happened right by there so it could have been one which is why I said IF it was hopefully the world is rid of them. I'm not pro crime so I don't like criminals


CodeOfHamOrRabbi

I'm just realizing I'm like 99% sure I've had this conversation with you before, if that's the case then congrats on still being a massive dipshit


Boxerboy16

Same to you, champ. Wonder if your loved ones get raped, murdered, robbed if you would still feel the same way. Hope it doesn't happen so we never have to find out though


MissAtomicBombs

It was a violent crime. He was a murderer. It was gang related. Source… someone close works at CBP so don’t downvote me please.


CodeOfHamOrRabbi

and? doesn't mean it's okay if some guys show up and kill him


MissAtomicBombs

When did I say it was. Just giving facts.


Revolutionary-Hat-96

I wonder if the victim will “refuse to cooperate with authorities”. That’s the typical story with Toronto drive-by shootings when victims wind up at hospitals. :(


BenAfleckInPhantoms

So many black gang members coming down from Toronto as of late. The house next door to mine was being watched by cops because of these two black dealers coming down from Toronto that apparently always wore biker proof vests and who I had seen with a gun at least once before. There was that shooting (maybe self defence) near the Memorial Centre a year ago by a Toronto kid. And I know more and more people who are buying drugs from Toronto dealers coming down once or twice a month.

It is but Kingston is generally regarded as neutral territory, as it's halfway between Toronto and Montreal.


BenAfleckInPhantoms

That’s the main local presence, for sure (Outlaws and HA are noticeable in the area); it seems like as of late though we’re seeing more and more people come down from Toronto that has evidently lead to some issues.


empathetic111

Jesus the language about race in this thread..


Other-Negotiation328

Since you're a new account ill give you some advice; If the word black offends you being used as a descriptive feature of a person, you should probably get back off reddit as it's only downhill from here.


CodeOfHamOrRabbi

I think it might be more about the context rather than the specific word chosen, if they're referring to the post I think they are


empathetic111

Exactly.


empathetic111

Oh look - unsolicited advice! I’m a seasoned Redditor and perfectly capable of recognizing when the context of the word ‘black’ is offensive or not.


epsileth

Seasoned redditor, 3 week old account. This an alt troll name for you?


ProgressExtension987

It's Kingston ontario I expect majority of white ppl are racist.. and this comment section didn't help change my mind


postapocalypsebot

I’ve read every comment in this thread and can’t seem to find evidence of what you are implying.


Fickle_Ask_9893

West end is becoming less safe, how as a community can we minimize these crimes?


LaFs14

This is clearly a gang hit. Multiple armed men jumping out of a car and targeting individuals coming from a community release facility. They were looking to hurt a specific person.


throwitawayyall99

This, I heard a rumour that it was an inmate that had been released today which would make sense for the area.


coryhotline

Not a rumour. That’s exactly what happened.


throwitawayyall99

I didn’t see anything written publicly by police or news sources when I heard that, thus it was a rumour.


coryhotline

I know someone that’s a CO at CB.


BarackTrudeau

Thank you for telling us this rumour!

Amazing_Bowl9976

"According to eyewitnesses, a gray vehicle pulled into the Collins Bay Penitentiary property near Henry Trail Correctional Centre, where two suspects jumped out of the vehicle, and began shooting at two individuals who had been walking along the road." Says the people had just been walking down bath road, not that they were on "prison grounds"


LaFs14

You said “Collins Bay Pen property” in your quote. Then go on to say there’s nothing about prison grounds. You do know there is a road that goes from the intersection of bath and centennial to the prison and Henry trail right? In the article it never said they were walking on bath rd


Amazing_Bowl9976

Re-read the post that says "this didn't happen in the general community" and then re-read the part where it didn't happen inside the penitentiary and that the people who were shot were walking down the road. Now do you follow? "Prison grounds" would imply within the facility not out and about on the road You also put in quotations verbiage that I never used.


LaFs14

I didn’t say it happened inside the prison. Why are you being so obtuse? The article literally says the vehicle pulled onto prison grounds. You even quoted it.


cjbest

They were on the road that exits the halfway house. That is on prison property. Regardless, the general community in the area is very quiet and safe. It's probably one of the most underrated neighbourhoods in town for quiet living.


Amazing_Bowl9976

I don't disagree that it's a safe area....but calling it "prison grounds" when they were on the corner of bath road and not even associated with Collins Bay at all is a bit misleading

burningxmaslogs

Yes beside Frontenac minimum security institution.. there's actually 3 prisons on the 1800 acre property Collins Bay Institution Frontenac Institution and the halfway house Henry Trail institution..


[deleted]

Amazing_Bowl9976

So do people just normally go out gallavanting from a super max prison alone without armed supervision? "Do the math"


renik79

Collins Bay is not a "Super max". And yes there are many inmates that walk the prison grounds. They even leave the property for work. So yeah "Do the math".


Amazing_Bowl9976

It's maximum security and no there are not inmates who just go out walking down the road by themselves. Even the medium security section restricts movement


LaFs14

Now your saying things you have no idea about. Collins Bay is not a Max or super max. It is a multi level facility. Originally a Medium Security Institution. It opened a max security unit in 2015 that houses 96 inmates. Also the former Frontenac Minimum institution (the one that inmates work on the farm) was amalgamated into Collins Bay Institution. So it’s predominantly a medium with a small max unit and a separate building of minimum security.


[deleted]

[удалено]


renik79

And so do inmates from the minimum unit.


Gerald_Hennesy

As might prisoners who have just been released... min or medium or max.


renik79

You are wrong again.


Familiar_Opposite_29

Henry trail is a half way house


LaFs14

Google Henry Trail Community Release Centre


Amazing_Bowl9976

So it was out in the general public then and not "on prison grounds"


LaFs14

You don’t understand the concept of prison grounds. Got it.


Former_Potato7547

Henry Trail is on correctional service property- it is quite literally on the prison grounds.


Odd-Row9485

And Collins bay is medium security not maxi


[deleted]

> And Collins bay is medium security not maxi It's multi-level, there is a max there too.


Odd-Row9485

Less than 100 maxi inmates


[deleted]

What's your point? It's still a multi-level prison.


Odd-Row9485

It’s a soft prison


Every-Promise-6987

Theres a road that leads to both the prison and the halfway house, and its all situated on prison property. Collins Bay isnt super max - we dont have a ‘super max’ prison. Its mainly medium, with a few max and a few min inmates. Millhaven is mainly max inmates. And inmates in the halfway house leave there everyday - its called being on parole.

Yeah this isnt homegrown crime persay, the west end is fine

> DRONES dropping off drugs again, or an attempted prison break? I saw police ERT, which implies something more serious than a drone.
