During the conversation with reporters Tuesday morning, Detroit Police Chief James Craig was asked if he would gas up overnight in the city.So the Chief, a big black guy in uniform and armed admits he himself wouldn't risk gassing up in Detroit after dark. What a fine city, black leaders who made Detroit what is today must be proud.
"I wouldn't, unless really had to," Craig said. "But I'd be very aware of my surroundings if I had to."
Although he has warned residents to be careful in the past, they were his strongest statements to date about the risks at gas stations in Michigan's largest city after dark. And they came just more than a year after Mayor Mike Duggan asked for an apology from a suburban official who, among other statements, advocated against buying gas in Detroit due to the dangers.
