LAPD put a police artist drawing of Ramirez on the front page of the Times. That's why the neighborhood folk recognized and chased him down. Shame that sheriff saved him.
He was in line at a liquor store to buy a pack of cigs. The guy in front of him turned around to make conversation. He looked at Ramirez, looked back at the newsstand, repeated the process. He ID’d the perp, and all “L” broke loose.
