I had a cousin who at one time lived in Fenwyck subdivision , unlike Alphonso Watts who strikes me as a lifetime thug….my cousin was a real live Bad A$$….D Day into Germany, took a bayonet in the face and kept on ticking….could have given Alphonso a right good “educational beat down” and escorted him to Sunday School….
Do you get the impression by looking at his face that there’s a chance he acted in self defense? Or is jumping to conclusions your main form of cardiovascular exercise?
Definitely fists we’re thrown.
Hi Spyglass or perhaps a “Colt 45” bottle was thrown.
That is possible PTCitizen…or perhaps his face reflects the other persons defense…I am going with the operative reference about Mr. Watts that informs me the most about what happened …”possession of a firearm by a convicted felon”.
Seems this is reoccurring all too often in Fayette Co. if we go back and read the crime news in The Citizen.
