I agree Dan, this story is ridiculous. It would sure be nice if MPD actually investigated something BEFORE putting out a press release.

Wait, a ten year old "punched" a grown man and got away? Never saw a ten year old that could do that. Hand over mouth would indicate that the man was behind him, so how did he "punch" him? Sounds way to made up. But a real bad guy or not, those two boys had NO business being on the street at that time of night, I don't care where it is.
