May not matter but... byAndrew Taylor2 weeks ago (0 votes) (report abuse) (reply)
FWIW The car pictured is , I believe, a Datsun 210 (manufactured 1978 to 1982, part of the B310 series) and not a Datsun B210 (manufactured 1973 to 1978). I only know because I owned a Datsun B210 from 1980 to 1990.

I have seen a light colored Datsun B210 parked on the North side of Cherry, east of MLK. (perhaps around 30th & Cherry.) I've noticed it a number of times on walks because an old friend had one years ago.

Datsun B210's seen everywhere. bybubba K2 weeks ago (0 votes) (report abuse) (reply)
been listening to the scanner and there appear to be a lot of sightings. People are calling in sightings of the homicide suspect vehicle in all radio zones.

old beater cars like the one the cops are looking for are probly owned by unsuspecting non English speaking immigrants or teenagers first car, who will get the crap scared out of them when they get dragged out of their car at gunpoint.

I just hope citizens will stay cool and not try to act like a lynch mob.

Pretty sure he means "non english speaking immigrants", which does not equal illegal aliens. Are you really that ignorant?
