Alabama Police Nab Armed Suspect in Home Break-In
I’ve been following crime patterns across Alabama for a while, and when I read about what happened on Dauphin Island Parkway earlier this month, it honestly hit a nerve.
On Monday evening, July 7, just before 8 p.m., officers rushed to the 2200 block of DIP. Two men—both reportedly known to the residents—barged into a home at gunpoint and stole property. No one was hurt, thankfully. But if you’ve ever lived in a neighborhood like that, you know this kind of thing doesn’t just shake the people inside the house—it rattles the entire block.
What stood out to me isn’t just the violence—it’s how targeted and bold the act was. This wasn’t a random burglary. It was planned. Personal. And it could’ve gone very differently…
