Why was this woman alone at that hour? Just makes me think that a little good sense on her part would have avoided this situation.

Did you know, Sally, that an assault can happen anytime anywhere? Does your statement mean that if I were attacked at 8 pm over on Market st then I shouldnt have been there and could have avoided the situation? Geez, think before you post please. As the other poster said, she could have been getting off work. She could have been getting in or out of her car. It is NOT her fault she was assaulted and it has nothing to do with where she was. People get assaulted even on the north end of wilmington.

Dear Sally Sue Maybe she was getting off of work? Some people do work in restaraunts and bars. Maybe she had good sense. A predator is a predator. When you are being hunted there is nothing you can do! You are a very ignorant person.

What kind of life has this kid had to make him so angry and violent? He is old enough to know better either way. He needs to be off the streets permanently. Life.
