Suitcase City

This is the kind of stuff that makes living in Suitcase City a nightmare.

TAMPA - An arsonist destroyed three cars and damaged a fourth early Thursday in a north Tampa neighborhood, setting the fires while the owners slept, Hillsborough County Fire Rescue spokesman Ray Yeakley said.

No one was hurt, but whoever set the fires apparently was intent on causing more damage. Gas caps had been removed from the burned cars and six other vehicles that did not catch fire, Yeakley said.

Sara Watts only had one payment left and Kaleena Moreno just got her car. Considering the area, these women probably don't have a lot of money. They may be living paycheck from paycheck. Now they will have to rely on Hartline to get to and from work. Hartline sucks big ones.

People's lives are ruined in so many ways from crime in Suitcase City. Try going down 15th Street between Fletcher Avenue and 131 Street. Crack dealers are all over the place. Things were bad in 2000 and they haven't gotten better.
