The suspect is probably from the east side of the parish because the west is Utopia and they don't have any crime problems.

I am honestly shocked that Covington PD is playing these bullshite PC games. They don’t seem like the type that would hold back on a description. I hear Lentz is doing a great job as Chief over there and that people love him.

ETA. Unless it is The Advocate who neutered the description in which case they should be called out on it.

The west side of the parish is generally nicer but lots of scum in the West 30's of Covington and Lee Road.

The Covington PD Facebook post states they are "possibly looking for a black male, early 20's, 5'10", light complexion"

Covington proper is almost storybook it’s so beautiful but with a fairly rough area in the middle, nearby where this happened.

The rural areas to the north are about what one would expect from rural areas, a mixture of nice horse farms, some average joe types, some salt of the earth country types and some trash.

So NOLA.com elected to neuter the description for whatever reason. Once again, the media elects to alter the story to fit an agenda. I am seriously sick of these “journalists” and them thinking it is OK to change the facts of stories.

It’s Nola.com not CPD that is pulling the PC crap.

It's a fckn joke the paper won't just say the suspect is black. How in the fck is it racist to describe the suspects color of skin? It's a pretty damn important piece of info in apprehending the violent thug.
