Freddie Adams was killed in a gang fight in the 90s. Don't tell the neighborhood that it was gang related though even though that's what all the evidence says. Wayne Ellis was murdered walking home in 2002. That is still unsolved but believed to be a robbery. The poor Sweeney kid. In the 90s a black family moved in on Marlborough and they had to have a cop outside untill they were able to move because people broke in and beat them up and they were constantly harassed. My grand father lived on Oxford and when he passed on my mom was selling it, a black couple viewed it and after that the house was graffitied with swastikas. I love the neighborhood because I grew up there but it has its issues. It always has but people dont want to face it. It's easier to blame the new people or the DA even though the cops never show up when called and if they do they are belligerent. I have never had a good experience with the 26th.
