“And where is this?”

I wish that location was a required field on all FR posts dealing with an incident, crime, etc.

It is always best when the poster of a thread of a local story uses the “Body of Comment” section to provide at least a smidgen of back story, who, what, when, where, and why.

The same goes for editors of local news sources who, by now, should understand their article might get world-wide attention.

In journalism, that's called a "dateline," and no editor worth his red pen would have printed a story without one.
