Shooting on Boise GreenBelt Leaves Questions
It's one of the hidden gems in the Gem State. The Boise Green Belt. Chances are if your reading this, you've walked, ran, or biked the 25-mile path at least once. I'll use it as an alternative way to bike to work when the weather is nice or to take a walk to clear my head before my show (BTW 3p-7p) During my 10 years here in the city of trees, I've never felt uncomfortable or unsafe on the GreenBelt. But as our grows so does the crime, and thanks to a shooting on the Greenbelt this evening that has left one person injured, I'm left asking myself, is the Greenbelt still safe?
1 injured, 1 arrested after shooting on Boise Greenbelt
Boise Police said in a Twitter post that the shooting happened at about 7 p.m. on the Greenbelt between Veterans Memorial Parkway and Whitewater Park Boulevard.
As of the time of this post, there is no word on the condition of the victim. As a father, one of the reasons I'm so fond of Boise is because of its safety. I hope that doesn't start to vanish.
