City Paper reports horrible, awful, catastrophic news: Leroy, the Mayor of Fells Point, has been arrested for assault and subsequently sent to Spring Grove Hospital. The suit lovin’, woman huggin’, smilin’ bastion of Fells Point allegedly punched a cop in the face on May 2nd and was charged with 2nd degree assault and deemed mentally incompetent while awaiting trial, which was scheduled for June 10th.
Granted, everyone knows Leroy’s a bit crazy, but as a beloved character of our city he deserves a little support. So show some love on his Facebook group page (not made by him), with any luck some kind soul will point it out to him as he gets treatment and it’ll make him smile just a little more. BONUS: I’ve been told Leroy is in this episode of Insomniac in Baltimore from some years ago, but I have no way to verify since the video is from 2000-2001. |
I heard about this last night; people were talking about this all over Fells Point. Sad, so sad.
It might sound ridiculous, but I would kind of like to make a giant card and have all kinds of people sign it and have it sent to him.
Aw. That’s sweet.
It’s too bad the city would rather spend money on punishing and incarcerating this man than treating him & making his life better.
Leroy is in the video, 1/2way thru in the Wharf Rat. It’s him, referred to by name.
