Great job JC Police!!!! Get this trash out of our city!!!!!

Because of the over night garbage pick-ups you have to remember to get your garbage out on time. I wonder if this guy knew the culprits, I would feel better if they did. To think that something so inocent as putting out the garbage then getting attacked by garbage can happen in front of your own home is horrible. Some of these idiots weren't even from this section of town. This can happen on the spur of the moment and probably will occur again so don't be surprised when it does. You can't prevent when they're thinking and what they are about to do. Just watch over your shoulder.
