FDR Drives or MLK Blvds always seem to have these problems, no matter what the city. Coincidence, I guess...

“The FR search works best if you confine it to one or two significant words of the title (usually one is all you need) and stay away from words of three characters or less. Those don’t work at all. And avoid typos by using cut and paste rather than typing the words in. Also, it appears that some people are not choosing the “Title” option in the pull down. That’s required if you wish to search by title.”

My heart is aching. I’m praying for his family, wondering if he has children.
In the article they mentioned his father.
God Bless his family and friends.
God please keep the police safe, they walk into harms way everyday to protect us.
Prayers and Blessings from North Carolina.
