Kenny B. who was reporting at the scene for The Gateway Pundit was one of the two remaining reporters in the area. Local news organizations pulled their reporters a few hours ago. A couple of locals told Kenny and his friend they better get going before sundown so they packed up their bags and left the area. The neighborhood on Page and Walton is not a safe area.
Police drew their weapons earlier during a confrontation.
