Woman Pulls Gun At Atmore Business

August 5, 2011

An Atmore woman was arrested Friday morning after pulling a handgun at an Atmore business during an altercation.

The Atmore Police Department responded to the Cash Express in a shopping center Lindberg Avenue where two women were fighting on the sidewalk. 911 callers reported that one of the women had a gun.

When officers arrived about 9 a.m., the females were separated and the handgun secured.

According to witness statements, Quanette B. Crenshaw 31 of Atmore had driven to the Cash Express and confronted the victim with a handgun concerning a disagreement that had occurred the previous night. They began to fight, and an employee of the business disarmed Crenshaw, police said. No shots were fired.

Crenshaw was booked into the Atmore City Jail on charged of third degree assault and menacing.

    The only way to stop this mentality with guns is to just drop the person where they stand. Once a few folks are dropped in their tracks alot of this nonsense will go away.

    Up until the mid 1970s, the state line had stabbings and shootings regularly. I remember Grandmas radio,” If anyone has A positive blood, come on over to the Greenlawn and donate, so and so was shot at such and such place, last night”. This is nothing new to Atmore.

    Does it really matter where “crazy” people come from? What is important to me is that they get prayer, and not judgement. The devil will use whoever he can to kill steal and destroy others.

    That’s funny, cause most of the crazies come over from Atmore to cause trouble in Century. Cases in point the trouble Century has had at their Communitiy Centers have come from Atmore! Hmmm, and wasn’t there a murder at the Dirt Cheap there in Atmore a while back, and then let’s talk about the stabbing at the Grey Goose. Tell you what Century wont look at your CRAZIES if you don’t start comparing them and keep your own CRAZIES in at Atmore and out of our Community Center, let then ruin yours!

    Do you mean to tell me I missed a good ole girl fight….man I need to take off work a little more often…Quanette must have an anger problem…and totes a pistol too…Would not want to make her mad. Glad there were no shots fired…hats off to the employee who took the pistol away too !! The article says that WHEN OFFICERS ARRIVED THEY WERE SEPARATED…by the officers ?? or by the employee ?? Does it mean it was over when the police arrived ?? The world is getting worse people….just an observation by BAEBAE
