      Our world is so freaked up that after reading this article my first thought was why would someone go out at such dangerous time? But my second thought was why there is even dangerous time stopping us to enjoy life? Why can’t we take a walk in the middle of the night without being scared to get robbed or even killed? Hope the police department will do the investigation and the criminal would be punished!

      Thanks for sharing an informative article about the event. After reading this article, I think we can endanger any person in the world at any time. We have to be careful. No one is above the law, hopefully, the culprit will be punished.
