This week we learned of an 8-year-old by the name of Josiah "JoJo" Dunn who had been involved in a hit and run accident. The suspect allegedly hit the child and never stopped to render aid. The family of the child would later locate the alleged suspects and go to the suspect's home demanding an arrest. The stand-off led to a protest at the corner of Berry and Bright. Does the manner in which this situation quickly turned volatile reveal the fact that the city of Fort Worth is sitting on a powder keg. Could this situation have potentially turned deadly had the wrong buttons been pushed by either side. Many feel the police failed to investigate the hit and run properly which caused the family of the child and the community to take to the streets demanding justice for "jojo". Also, Reggie Ruffin with Just Cause will be with us. Ruffin says the Dallas PD has been harassing him and states they have even stolen his car and has refused to return it.
