“Rob Gray and his brother-in-law said they were walking down River Street enjoying the sites with their families when they were confronted by a man.”
When such a situation arises one is well advised to have ones’ hand on ones’ gun and to be scanning behind as well as in front - there were two adult males and neither seems to have been armed nor were they working together to deal with the well known threat of Urban Feral predation.
So many people lack any situational awareness much to their pain.
