  • Homeless Atlanta Man Goes Viral For Being A Hottie, ‘People Will Pay To Look At Your Face!’

    Homeless Atlanta Man Goes Viral For Being A Hottie, ‘People Will Pay To Look At Your Face!’

    They may call it “HotLanta” but it’s not because of how sexy people are in the Black mecca.

    However, one Atlanta man by the social media name of Bigbossd Escobar is top of the list of hotties after his photo went viral and a barrage of women offered up ideas of where he could stay and encouraged him to try modeling.

    On June 30, Escobar posted in a Facebook group that he lost his home and was looking for a new place to lay his head.

    “Recently lost my home just need a place that is reasonable price so I can get back on my feet tired of sleeping in Atlanta shelters. Very quiet person and stay to myself. Work a job and also have a clothing line,” he shared.

    “I moved to Atlanta from St. Louis four years ago if anybody have any resources you can send my way I will accept thankyou I appreciate it,” he wrote.

    But his face card didn’t decline and the comments from women in the group centered on helping Escobar secure housing and perhaps look into becoming a model.  

    “I just have to say this: you need to be modeling! People will pay to look at your face!” one woman said.

    While another gushed: “Geesh he’s handsome! You should definitely model.”

    Let’s hope his face card is enough currency to get him what he needs.

    Two Georgia Women Go On A Stealing Spree At The Mall Of Georgia, Leaving Behind $8K Worth Of Merchandise

    Two Georgia women are on the lam after going from store-to-store in a mall stealing merchandise along the way, WSBTV reports.

    Gwinnett county Georgia authorities are looking for two women Nakenda Janea Thompson Fevrier, 27 and Shacarrie Deasia Heyward, 29, after they were caught going on a stealing spree.

    “With around $8,000 estimated stolen from nine different stores that evening,” said Cpl. Juan Madiedo of the Gwinnett Police Department. 

    The suspects reportedly hit several stores, racking up expensive merchandise from nine different stores in the Mall of Georgia.

    “They took items ranging from Stanley Cups from Dick’s Sporting Goods to child’s clothing to high end perfumes,” Madiedo said.

    “It appears they did it just before closing,” he said.

    On June 22, a Dick’s Sporting Goods employee confronted the women after he peeped them pocketing items. The crooks fled on foot, dropping thousands of dollars of merchandise. They even left their vehicle, a white Kia and they left behind laundry loads of clothes on the ground.

    “The vehicle was a rental vehicle,” Madiedo said. 

    The women are facing charges from shoplifting to prowling when they finally get caught.

  • Black Barbershop Owner Says He Was Tricked Into Hosting Trump Event; Now He’s Losing Business

    Black Barbershop Owner Says He Was Tricked Into Hosting Trump Event; Now He’s Losing Business

    Rocky Jones says his thriving Atlanta-based barbershop business is now on the rocks after he hosted a campaign event for former President Donald Trump.

    The Black business owners told Alive 11 News that he was misled and thought he was hosting a roundtable for Black businesses but instead it was a political rally for Trump. President Biden and Trump were in the battleground state for a campaign debate last Thursday.

    The Buckhead shop owner said the backlash has been swift with a barrage of angry people lashing out at him.

    “I thought it was going to be something real private,” Jones said. “I’m thinking about Black businesses in Atlanta, small Black businesses in Atlanta. And I’m like, ‘Ok, so when are we gonna start talking about this?’”

    But to his surprise, Trump acolyte Ben Carson showed up and other Trump surrogates. And then there was a call to the barbershop from Trump.

    “I’m like, why is the ex-president calling somebody in my barbershop? This has nothing to do with small Black businesses.”

    The Trump campaign has since responded, saying that Jones was paid $4,800 for the use of the venue on Wednesday, June 26, and he reportedly signed papers authorizing the event

    Since the event, Jones says business has gone down.

  • White Arizona Man Concocts Plan To Incite Race War and Attack Black People In Atlanta

    White Arizona Man Concocts Plan To Incite Race War and Attack Black People In Atlanta

    A white Arizona man was armed and ready to attack Black people at a rap concert and instigate a race war in Atlanta.

    On Tuesday, a federal grand jury indicted Mark Adams Prieto for his senseless plan to start a race war by selling rifles ahead of the planned attack slated to coincide with the 2024 Presidential Election, according to the U.S. Department of Justice.

    The FBI conducted a months-long investigation and arrested the suspect in mid-May. Prieto started concocting his plan in October 2023.

    According to a source, “Prieto believes that martial law will be implemented shortly after the 2024 election and that a mass shooting should occur prior to the implementation of martial law.” And Prieto reportedly asked the source if he was “ready to kill a bunch of people.”

    Undercover agents reportedly linked up with Prieto at a gun show in Prescott, Ariz., where he was a vendor earlier this year. Prieto divulged “suspicious and alarming,” plans “including advocating for a mass shooting, and specifically targeting ‘Blacks, Jews or Muslims.”

    Prieto explained in an affidavit why he chose Atlanta saying: “The reason I say Atlanta. Why, why is Georgia such a [expletive]-up state now? When I was a kid that was one of the most conservative states in the country. Why is it not now? Because as the crime got worse in LA, St. Louis, and all these other cities, all the [expletives] moved out of those (places) and moved to Atlanta. That’s why it isn’t so great anymore. And they’ve been there for a couple, several years.”

    A trial date hasn’t been set and Prieto faces a multitude of charges.

    #Clique, Prieto didn’t have a dog in this fight.

    In a recent incident reported by the Forsyth County deputies, a bank robber’s plans were foiled thanks to the courageous actions of an employee who fearlessly confronted the criminal, leaving the would-be thief empty-handed. 

    Deputies told Channel 2 Action News that an unidentified man walked into Regions Bank on McGinnis Ferry Road and passed the manager a note that read,

    “Give me all your 20s, 50s, and 100s.”

    To which the manager responded,

    “No, you need to leave,”

    handing the robber his note back, deputies said. 

    According to a witness, the alleged suspect raised his jacket in a manner that suggested he might be armed. However, no visible firearm was observed.

Law enforcement officials have described the individual, noting that he stands approximately six feet tall and appears to be in his early 30s. They are asking anyone with information about the identity of this individual, to contact Forsyth County deputies.
