And while the Meighan's have had to become used to being targets, another well-known city resident had his home shot at for the first time last night.
Goldbourne Adulphus, known as Easy Glen, who lives on Jane Usher Boulevard extension says that someone shot his house at 9:00 last night.
Now, that is a street without any streetlamps - and so when he heard the sound of a gunshot at his window, he took cover. He told us more:..
Goldburne Adolphus "Easy Glen" - House Shot
"We were TV, and suddenly, I heard like my cycle fell, but it was raining, so I told my wife that I won't come out and pick it up. I then heard loud gunshots, and my girl and I got on the ground. When we got down on the ground, Jules, I told her that those were gunshots, and they are coming right here. She started to cry on the floor. I grabbed my phone and called the emergency hotline. They were looking for bullet holes, Jules, and they can't find any. I'm telling them that It's right here that the man stood up, and I know. I heard it because the window was tilted a little bit. And I even smelled the fragments of it, that gun powder business. This morning, when I came out, I was searching my house because I know that it's here. I looked up there. That's no nail hole. I'm talking to the ghetto youths. I have nothing with no youth out here, and I think that all of you all know me."

"Does anyone have a 'beef' with you that they would come to your house and shoot at it like this?"
Goldburne Adolphus "Easy Glen"
"Let me say this, Jules. I'm a man who doesn't have 'beef, chicken' and those types of things. I just run that little slight thing because I don't have any dispute with any ghetto youths at all. I can tell any of them this, if you are hurting people for no reason, the one thing you can say when you finish doing it, is 'sorry'. And when you take life, you can't go and buy life at any shop. You can't walk the street corner and find any life, and you can't buy any lotto ticket to win any life. It's real and it's only one time that you have it. So, I am saying this to any ghetto youths; it's our own selves that we are 'fanning' off. I wouldn't try to get that mentality any at all to say well, try revenge, or buy any gun. I am speaking straight up. Let's watch the report card. For every weekend, those things slow down everything in this country. If it's even if it's your parents or somebody who wants to come from abroad to come visit you, they don't even want to come. So, I am saying this. I don't know who is doing this foolishness, and idleness, but I am asking you, let us hold up our heads and move as one. Let us live together."
There are no suspects for the shooting.
