Grew up around here. Must have washed my many different vehicles there about 1000 times over the years. Stopped by there the other day. Put my $1.50 in to wash and turned the knob to soap and it shut off. The owners are nice people I’m sure but they should have set up surveillance years ago! Also I really wish they would update those wash machines. And yes that place has been a regularly frequented drug dealer hangout. Its a shame that the town has ONE red light and the dang cops can’t get ahold of all the drugs and crime!! Oh yeah forgot to mention maybe if the town didn’t have 3-4 low income housing aka (free cribs for the crack dealers) it wouldn’t be that bad. And for the boys who got robbed. Y’all should have known better. Next time call somebody who knows the area. Also I saw a black explorer with two black malesmales in it talking to two white males in a small truck with big wheels. Same people as the story? Wonder who drives the explorer?
Cygie, flomaton is al they could have went to the one store next door for that matter.
Last Thursday I went there to vacuum my car out and while I was there two black males pulled up. They whistled at me then asked what my name was. I told them it didn’t matter what it was. Then they asked if I had an old man and I said yes and they were like, we just want to be your friend. I told them I had enough friends and didn’t need anymore. They made me feel very uncomfortable. I am glad I had just gotten done because had I been in the car and not seen them drive up they could have very easily robbed me. I am not saying that they would have but they made me so uncomfortable that I hurried to get out of there. I will never go there by myself again. It is sad that you can’t even vacuum out your car with out getting approached by some weirdos. I hope they find the two guys for the people that got robbed.
Sounds like someone collected their IOUs
I would guess the victims went to Flomaton PD because there was a chance somebody would be there, even if it was dispatch. I don’t know for certain if anybody is still at the Century office of the Escambia, FL Sheriff’”s office. Plus the article states that their phones were stolen as well.
Why did they go to flomaton, they can’t do anything?
Everyone knows they drug deal there, sounds like a drug deal gone bad. cops need to watch that place closer.its sad that goes on right under peopes eyes, and NO one does anything about it.
