Well 2009 is a done deal and we welcome the new year 2010. Palm Bay residents closed out 2009 in typical Palm Bay fashion. Its been a busy week in the news.

Over at Poolies and the Retro Room early Christmas Morning there was a big brawl requiring, according to police reports up to 24 officers to respond to quell the disturbance. At one point, police report, a crowd of over 100 people screamed profanity and tossed at least one glass bottle toward officers. Do these people not spend Christmas with their families? Police charged Paul Franklin, 25, with battery on a law enforcement, inciting a riot and resisting with violence. Sounds like the entire Palm Bay PD was there spending their Christmas at Poolies sending drunks home and bringing one to the crowbar hotel for the holidays. Typical Palm Bay behavior cant even behave on Christmas.
Our little section of I95 was like driving Talladega Superspeedway with numerous car accidents


between Malabar and Palm Bay road exits resulting in injuries and death actually there is less death at Talladega . I guess we cant really blame this one on Palm Bayers. People drive through I95 like a bunch of assholes and with all the construction its just the "big one" waiting to happen.
We also had the 69 year old Walmart greeter ass kicking contest that made the National News at our very own Malabar Road Wally World. Seems that customer 23 year old Palm Bayer Skyler Lowery set off the the alarm on his way out and the greeter followed him out side.

You know that beeper alarm has pissed me off a few times but I did not think I could take the greeter in a all out fight. Anyway the greeter followed Skyler out the door. Skyler Lowery was not stealing anything he had a receipt but the greeter was relentless and Mr. Lowery came back in the store took the greeter's clip board and the fight was on. You can watch the video your self at FL Today's website the old man held his own pretty good for being 69 years old and taking on a 23 year old. Mr Lowery was also taken to the crowbar hotel and released on $5000. bond. He claims self defense. Watch the video and you make the call. Lowery would not comment directly on the case, but indicated there was more to incident than portrayed on the videotape released by authorities. He also said the store's greeter followed him out of the store and into the parking lot -- despite being shown the requested receipt -- and used derogatory language to call out to him. Lowery would not say what the words were. But I bet you somebody is gonna claim the "N"word was used. Maybe it was just a passing car blaring common rap lyrics. I guess we will have to wait for the trial.
We also had the "Desperate" Robber

Pierce Elwood Collins, 49, of Palm Bay, could face jail time after Palm Bay Police said he confessed to carrying out two armed robberies over the weekend. Collins lost his job three months ago. He moved in with his mother on Saturn Street in southwest Palm Bay. On Sunday, Collins walked into an Exxon convenience store on U.S. 1 to buy a pack of gum. When he returned to his car, he found a knife and went back into the store and demanded cash the clerk initially rebuffed the armed robber, but the robber allegedly threatened to kill the clerk if he did not get the cash. Police said the suspect, whom they identified as Collins, was given a handful of cash before leaving in a gold car.Sorry about your hard times Dude especially with all of this hope and change going on but you cant rob stores.
About four hours later on Monday at the CVS Pharmacy at 1599 Babcock Street, police said Collins approached another clerk and pulled a knife demanding cash.
We had a Meth lab bust big news there. Palm Bay police discovered a methamphetamine lab at 111 Maywood Ave. near Malabar Road after they served a search warrant at the address. A lot of Police,

guys wearing hazmat suits carrying out little cans of chemicals. This incident happened close to home and there were a lot of police there. Good thing nothing was going on at Poolies.
We also had some more little juvenile punks get busted for breaking into houses and cars. A burglary suspect who vowed to Palm Bay police that he would be back on the streets before Christmas has been ordered by a judge to remain in custody for the holidays.Patrol officers arrested the teen with five other juveniles during two unrelated burglaries Monday And as is so typical with these little bastards is a couple had numerous arrests on their record and bragged that they would be home for Christmas. Who and why do they keep letting these little pricks out of jail I say lock them up and make mommy and daddy pay some $$$$ maybe then they will take responsibility for their little juvenile delinquents. Or I say charge them as adults.
Then we have the dip shit child porn guy at the Palm Bay Road Walmart that is actually located in West Melbourne.

This piece of human debris goes to nthe photo center prints some "family " photos and leaves before his pictures print out. The Walmart worker finds pictures of a ten year old girl preforming sex acts. Thank God they busted this creep Brian Neil Rozema, 36 from Palm Bay.
Finally the Palm Bay police got to use

the para glider this week. Some suspicious brush fires flared up in the beautiful SW area and the police got airborne. What a sight, breathtaking, Palm Bay PD airborne we dont need no stinking helicopter. Our Police air unit is the envy of the entire country.
I hope every one has a Safe and Happy Time ringing in the New Year and may you be blessed with a prosperous 2010. Happy New Year!
