Yeah, just take a drive down Main or Cedar. Lots of ghetto-looking 'hood rats in cars and on foot. Probably the Section 8 people from the closed-down housing projects in New Britain.

Hmmmmm......
I've lived here for going on 47 years ,and I don't see any "huge" problem .

Most of Newingtons crime comes from out of town , i.e. New Britian and Hartford .
That and the Turnpike , where this incident and the Hoffmans smash and grab occurred .

Aside from a couple high profile incedents over the past few years such as Officer Klett's murder (by a New Britian native), this is a pretty quiet town .

There have been a few "stupid kid" crimes that have been highly publicized , but there are gang banger wannabee's in every suburb in CT these days .

Newington is still a very nice town ,and we are very lucky to have a Police force that is on the ball .

You call a cop in Newington , one will be on scene in minutes .

Would this crime be less serious if it was a white kid from Newington, No. Lets keep to the facts, not narrow minded generalizations.

If you notice it is not Newington residents committing the crimes, we are the victims. Thank god nothing bad ever happens in Wethersfield.

It's just phenomenal that you guys somehow feel its appropriate to spew about Hartford and New Britain in a story with 4 West Hartford kids robbing a restaurant in Newington. But you're not biased at all.

I really don't understand the cockiness of these young, hispanic males. And then they wonder why White people hate them.
It's funny. I am an hispanic female myself (puerto rican) and I can clearly see that a lot of people ARE very cocky and they believe they can get away with whatever they want. It's like everything to them is "Mine, Mine, Mine!". However, not all hispanics are like that, just to be clear.:)

I just wish there was a way to separate the bad bananas of the bunch, if you know what I mean. ;)

I think posting MySpace links is rather uncalled for. By the way, one of those MySpace pages is for someone completely unrelated to the crime.

It's nice to see that bigotry and racism continue to thrive in Connecticut. Please, note my sarcasm.

I am a restaurant manager on the Berlin Turnpike and it is so nice to know that I am safe with the Newington PD around all the time. They are constantly making their rounds through our parking lot and are there when we need them and rather quickly at that. Thank you so much Newington PD for the amazing job you do every day so we all may return safely home to our families.
