I avoid stopping at any gas station in Century. Just too dangerous. I did the night before the hurricane to top off my tank, I was very thankful for my CCW and to be actively carrying.
Two words “Little Chicago” most dangerous small town in N.W.FL.
ccw permit. get one and carry.
Another drug deal gone bad. SMDH
I witnessed the whole thing, right behind my car. It was scary. Hope the guy heals soon and the shooter gets caught! Praying for everyone involved.
