Bloko's Temporarily Closed

 According to this post from the Carbondale Police there was a shooting at Bloko's on S. Illinois this afternoon about 4:20 with one person shot and critically injured enough to require hospitalization. A post on Facebook says the injured person was the restaurant's owner and the release from the police says the victim and alleged shooter knew each other. 

Edited to correct Bloko's spelling

  1. "What kind of town is this?" Henry Fonda as Wyatt Earp in MY DARLING CLEMETINE (1947). Contrary to Frederick Jackson Turner, The Frontier is alive and well in Southern Illinois.

  2. Two shootings in that area this summer. First one injured no one but broke some windows. This one injured someone.
