Lone Pine stories about this case….fact and rumors….getting very interesting !!!
Sure wish the Sheriffs would put out the picture/name of the person they are looking for in regards to this shooting
The new news and rumors in LP are now that the victim of this shooting had died….
Dude should’ve introduced the home-invader to say Hello to his little freind Lol
I truly love the Town of Lone Pine and its people but, as some have noted over the years, it’s too small to be a city… and too large to be an outdoor insane asylum. Fortunately, this attempt to kill someone (if proved true) failed. I hope the victim of the shooting recovers.
