because descriptions of suspects in violent crimes are racist
pretty hard to be on the lookout for somebody when the only description is "the suspect." are they white, black, brown, male, female, non-binary, cis-trans? unless the suspect's vehicle was stolen, shouldn't it be pretty easy to find out who this mysterious suspect is?
Did they ever say the car they impounded was stolen ? I would start in the fugging dorms at Hinds !!! The campus is one big pants on the ground hoodie play ground. I'm saying the RPD hasn't been specific on the perp. Seeing as how the home owner threw lead.....we should know who we are keeping a look out for ! Ok i'll say it.....was he a white boy/man ? Or maybe a black man/boy ...or maybe a hispanic man/boy ....women ?
He/She should be easy to find.
We can safely assume that they are not studying a STEM career at Hinds.
Raymond is a nice little town and doesn't need this RPD fail. Just tell the community what to look for ! What ? The hippy business owners uncomfortable releasing the true identity ?
To be fair, describing a suspect as "a black male" or "a white male" wouldn't really help us locate him either.

True, but it would enable us to eliminate 3/4 of the population. Let me break it down for you. White, Black, Male, Female = 4/4. If the PoPo says the perp is a white female, you can eleminate all black male, all black female, all white male which = 3/4. Rounding up or down of course.
Isn't that location right in the middle of the Hinds campus and buildings?
