Just called the police for my first time (not that exciting)

Don't start this.

He wanted the cops called, which few illegals would. If he's illegal, he'll get deported after this

let's be realistic here. he wouldn't get deported as ICE doesn't communicate with local law enforcement, and vice versa...this is a major problem that needs to be fixed. There are always reports in the news of illegals who murdered somebody, come to find out they were arrested previously and never deported(Jose Carranza anyone?). Even if it takes getting arrested to get deported(which rarely happens), this guy wouldn't have been deported as he wouldn't have been arrested in the first place. Plus with the deal in New York where illegals can legally obtain driver's licenses they're basically being assimilated anyway.

While there is some truth to that, I think our own inner city citizens are far more dangerous then illegals. Just look at Philly and Baltimore this year. Those cities have about 300 murders each just in the past year. I think Philly has like 335 or something already.

I wasn't addressing whether or not illegals are dangerous, I was addressing whether or not an illegal would likely get deported if he came in contact with police

It was nice of you though to have done this for him since it looks like he was in some pretty deep crap :thumbsup:

Fail.

The date, time and location all fit well. If it is his case then the way I figure it, he was walking through the alley (not uncommon) and got beat up, then walked north up the alley and went to the door of the closest apartment building (mine), and rang the first buzzer (mine).

I added a diagram to illustrate my theory: http://pics.bbzzdd.com/users/sm8000/map.jpg

Hopefully the assailant(s) do not frequent ATOT, as they would now know where you live.
