i hope that the county is billing lakewood for all the times they come here to find someones old clothes .
Such a waste of tax payers money
wah wah wah, you #1 & #2 whine like a bunch of babies. Would you rather, the package be “cynicized” by people like yourselves and then it blow up? What would happen if it was in front of your property or you were standing nearby?
will somebody please explain why people are leaving empty suitcases around Lakewood? This has got 2 be the third time, if not more., that this has happened.
