One week ago, residents in the Gibbs Village housing complex were reeling from a neighborhood shooting that left two people dead.

Montgomery Police arrested two suspects in connection with the crime--charging them with attempted murder and hindering prosecution.

Now, residents are doing everything they can to keep violence out.

With a little bit of prayer and a lot of unity, they hope a neighborhood meeting is the beginning of a safer housing community.

"You see something happen, you gotta tell," says one resident.

The Montgomery Housing Authority, Montgomery Police Department and other crime prevention officials stressed the importance of speaking up whenever residents see crime--especially shootings.

"It's worth it if we just save one life," says Montgomery Police Chief, Kevin Murphy.

"Now there's more guns," says resident, Gloria McWilliams.

In keeping with tradition, STERIS Corporation will honor local first responders on 9/11 by cooking up breakfast.

STERIS will serve breakfast to local law enforcement and fire fighters at Station #5 at their location at 2720 Gunter Park Drive in Montgomery.

They will also post a "Never Forget - 9/11" banner at the front gate and pass out small American flags.

The City Engineering Department with the help of some of Montgomery’s youth and Maxwell AFB – Base Environmental will be cleaning the West End Ditch along Highway 31 (Birmingham Highway) adjacent to the Maxwell installation.

Trash and anything else that has been dumped in the ditch, next to the ditch, around storm drains or even on neighborhood yards flows downstream with stormwater runoff and ultimately ends up either in the Alabama River or in trees, roots, or caught and clogging up the ditches. Once an area is clogged enough, flooding will occur.  The area to be cleaned is just past the concrete lined section of the ditch because the City Maintenance crews cannot clean this area.
