Tommy "Tiny" Lister, known for his role as "Debo" in Ice Cube's "Friday" films was robbed at gunpoint at Harold and Belles restaurant on Jefferson Boulevard in South Los Angeles yesterday.
The release stated that "Lister, who has starred in over 60 motion pictures, had summoned key clergy to the restaurant to discuss gang violence. All the key Bishops and major churches agreed that law and order and safety are paramount to this community if we are to create the kind of community that South Los Angeles deserves. Bishop Turner, one of the hosts, spoke of safety in the community and what was needed in order to ensure a safe community for all. After they all agreed to band together as a group of clergy to focus on gang violence, homelessness, jobs and safe communities the meeting came to an end and all parties proceeded to leave in their fancy automobiles.
"'Debo' was the last to leave. Two young men approached him. He thought they were coming to ask for an autograph or to say hello. Instead, they pulled out a gun and proceeded to take his jewelry, his phone, his wallet and threatened to kill him on the spot. He complied."
The release closed by saying that this morning at 9:30am (Pacific) a press conference will be held, literally at the scene of the crime, at Harold and Belles Restaurant (2920 West Jefferson in Los Angeles, at the corner of 10th Avenue).
"The whole matter will be addressed along with how we in South Los Angeles must help ourselves to ensure that we have a safe community," the release also said.

This is part of the reason why many successful blacks/latino's leave the hood. The ignorant rate is too high to deal with for some. Well "Deebo" can always by new jewelry, the question is, will he come back to help the same type of fools that robbed him. People like the robbers always get theirs eventually, they are not the only one's that carry guns.raphead2001 wrote:he come back to help and look what happens to him. and people call some busters and sellouts if they not going to the hood anymore
