On january 30th, 1987, josefino bugarin (61 years old at time of death) was found by family members lying on the ground in front of his barber shop (joe’s barber shop) which was (then) located at 109-a st. James ave. (the barber shop and adjacent businesses were razed years ago and replaced with the present-day elam’s crossroads shopping center). Bugarin was late coming home which aroused the suspicion of family members who went to the barber shop to check on him. After finding bugarin, family members flagged down a passing motorist who notified gcpd. Officers arrived and notified the coroner who pronounced bugarin deceased. The investigation revealed that bugarin had been robbed then bludgeoned to death as he had severe head injuries. Bugarin’s business was largely cash-based and he was known to carry sums of money on his personAgency

On august 18th, 2014, bryant hud kinsey (33 years old at time of death) was shot inside an apartment at 107 carolina ave. (s&k apartments) and later died from those injuries. Responding officers met with numerous witnesses, none of which provided useful information. An exhaustive investigation identified potential suspect(s); however, the reluctance of witnesses to cooperate has prevented significant case progress. A passing witness observed a white four-door buick or cadillac fleeing the area at a high rate of speed around the time of the shooting.Agency
