It is Still a high crime area. I dont even drive through the area, it is gang infested. If I had to live there I surely wouldn't give me child this much freedom, heck as an adult I wouldn't walk alone to a cousins house in Prichard. About 10 years ago I got lost in Mobile and ended up in Prichard, I stopped at a store in broad daylight to ask for directions and somebody rushed me with a knife in hand, I ran with all my former high school track glory, almost to my car I fell and landed on both knees, just about that time a cop pulled through the store parking lot, no doubt he saved my life. My knees were torn to shreds though. I' m praying this little girl is OK but I don't have a good feeling.
