Maybe, just maybe, the message is starting to get through.

Police earlier this week announced they had a suspect in the double-shooting that left one man dead and one badly injured in Chester.

They are now seeking Angus Richardson, of Chester. He remains on the lam.

They got the name because of what they are calling “extensive” witness cooperation.

It is the second time the public has come forward to provide information in a deadly Chester shooting.

Back in November, police also got information that led to the arrest of two teens in the stray bullet case the snuffed out the life of Kathy Ann “Kat” Stewart.

Maybe the tide is turning. Maybe the “no-snitching” culture that is so deeply rooted in too many communities is starting to crumble.

Now if only more residents, in more towns would get on board.

They can start by telling authorities where Richardson is so he can be brought to justice.

That’s what this is all about, after all.
