It’s been a while, but it seems we have another dangerous time/place/behavior situation (via Mike McGuff):

A Houston television reporter was carjacked and kidnapped at gunpoint early Monday and forced to drive to Beaumont, KPRC Local 2 reported.

Houston police said the gunman approached ABC-13 reporter Eric James at a red light on Westheimer Road near West Creek at about 3 a.m. Investigators said James had just left his apartment and was headed to work.

Okay, so following Chief Hurtt’s advice, local reporters should not head to work at 3 a.m. on Westheimer Road near West Creek, if they want to avoid becoming another crime statistic.
