Pastor Marvin Winans, who spoke at Whitney Houston’s funeral, was robbed and car jacked in Detroit this afternoon.
The shameful incident ocurred at a Citgo Gas Station at Linwood and Davison in Detroit. Winans, who was not seriously injured, said he went into the gas station to pay for his gas when he saw 10 young men milling around inside. “When I walked in I said this is not a good situation,” Winans told a local ABC affiliate.
He said 4 of the young men followed him outside to the pump where he was assaulted by the youths who stole his purple Infiniti QX56 SUV with license plate 0DRT73.
Detroit Police are searching for the suspects. Winans, 54, suffered a cut on his hand and the youths ripped his pants off of him. “I was indecently exposed,” said Winans, who described the incident as “quite savage.”
Winans said he didn’t think the youths knew who he was, “and if they did, it didn’t make much difference.”
“I’m not going to be afraid of us.. of our sons,” he said.

unbelieveable!

Elove
but on the same note he’s a pastor and I can understand why he wouldn’t want to have one
NINJAS aint shat. Always robbing. Black at that.
no jobs no money nuthin to do….
idle minds…..
I’m glad Marvin is ok.
This dont make got dayum sense right here. I cant see the vid but hopefully the citgo has cameras. Its situations like this where I believe in the stand your ground law. People work hard for their stuff and some youths gone take it. I dont care If they teenagers, they should be charged as adults. Lock they azz up! They are gonna run up on the wrong one one day, then their mom is gon be crying talking about my baby.
How you gonna snatched the pants off a nixxas azz?
Maybe he and other pastors can use this incident as a movement tool. Our community is in such desperate need of repair. I believe that he can truly make an impact, leverage the moment.

How you gonna snatched the pants off a nixxas azz?
I CAN’T Stop LAUGHING Though !!!
I wish the authorities would start charging these parents with the crimes their children commit, especially these fathers that have completely abandoned their children. This would incite better parenting and significantly lower crime rates in our communities. These parents aren’t being held accountable for these teens actions, civilians shouldn’t be suffering behind this.
why am I still stuck on dude was in a PURPLE infiniti… LOL @hood church folks…
Smh. now he knew he was in the wrong neighborhood alone. One of my close friends got killed over there in the same area.
Now this shyt right here…This is a dayum shame! Kids have no respect for their elders anymore…How they gonna rough up Marvin, steal his whip, AND take the pants off his a$$??? Now that is just low down and disrespectful! I

I too like other posters are concerned about this purple infiniti!
Did you not realize you would draw attention to yourself?
Did you not realize you were in the wrong area?
Could you not have made it to another station?
Why are you not using a check card?
Are you one of those hood pastors that still carry a roll of cash around?
My 78 yr old arthritic uncle knows to carry his piece on him while he’s ridin in his stankin lincoln
So many questions
Singing Bebe and Cece
“I just want to get close to you”
I can just hear the police dispatcher now
“All units be on the look out for a purple infiniti”
A what?
“A purple infiniti, a gentleman has been carjacked and the vehicle description is a purple infiniti”
Was he a pimp?
Wow
folks are still stealing cars?

I don’t see anything suspicious in this I really don’t. I have some dumbass young cousing. They robbed a dude the day before his payday and got 7 years a piece. They did take all his clothes. They wanted to humiliate this guy. I also have a family member now in jail for raping a guy with cerebral palsy. These kids today are awful!

The NBA sabotaged the Lakers from the jump when they disnt let the Chris Paul trade go through. You shoulda knew then they want the house nigga Thunder to make it.
SMH.
I’m trying to figure out how they got his pants off.
Did he step out of them? Were they the type of pants that male strippers wear that if you pull them they just come off, or were they just cheap pants in which case why the hell would they take them. So many questions… 
Horrible situation though
DAMN SHAME!!!! NICCAS I SWEAR-ARE RUNNING RAMPANT

morning post :newtopic: is up
Change :2dance: u shole do! pls lemme know when u get it
Yeah yall heard me right. He was out one night and from what he told the police the guy propositioned him. He said that he and the guy walked to the back of an abandoned buuilding and from there it gets sketchy. He is the only one that came back out according to surveilance. He had the guys IPhone. Well he started using the phone and giving the number out like it was his. He lived with his gmama and he didn’t come home all night and she called the phone. Well,the guys had gotten another phone,disable the stolen one and had his number transferred to the new one. When my aunt called the phone she asked where **** was and the dude told her what happened and he called the police. He gave them all his info and he is gone off to jail. Here in CT all arrests goes into the newspaper. They even publish people that lose their stuff that is even in storage. Nothing is sacred here. But the youth are out of control. He is trying to convince us he is not Le Ghey but no one just rapes 50 yr old men with CP and they are straight.
She tries to put make up on but it doesn’t help, she needs a professional makeover! Time has not been kind to her, we’re the same age and she looks a lot older. She has naturally curly hair and she attempted to straighten but it just made her look worse.
@ Brown –
Is that your pennance into heaven??

He said 4 of the young men followed him outside to the pump where he was assaulted by the youths who stole his purple Infiniti QX56 SUV with license plate 0DRT73.
Detroit Police are searching for the suspects. Winans, 54, suffered a cut on his hand and the youths ripped his pants off of him. “I was indecently exposed,” said Winans, who described the incident as “quite savage.”

It’s really sad for my aunt because of all the phone calls after the paper ran the story.
I’m glad that Pastor Winans is okay. He is a native Detroiter (so am I) and he porbably drives around the city a lot. We have to stop being afraid of our youth. They need prayer and love.
I think love will only go so far. I won’t be lovin on them while they’re bashin my head in tryna rob me!
It’s fine to pray and all of that but I think you should still be realistic about certain situations
I hate that I love KDUB so
wow at this story. these kids are outta control, but are we surprised? this is the generation and end result of babies having babies during the 80’s and early 90’s. yall remember, 12-15 y/o girls pregnant. sure, there’s a mix of other phuck ups in this generation too, but u get it.
Why did they rip his pants off? What burns my ass is how none of them would have the balls to try and pull off this crime alone. They always have to travel in packs. Had he shot one of their asses, he would’ve been well within his rights, as long as they weren’t running away of course.
Let me first say that I am happy he didn’t get hurt. NOW let me say this: people are getting shot, robbed, killed, raped, etc. EVERY SINGLE DAY in Detroit. Now that it happens to someone of “influence” it’s a problem. EVERYBODY knows NOT to stop and get gas on Linwood and Davison in Detroit, not even with your weapon. PERIOD!!!! So to me, he made a stupid decision and this was the result. The youth is so lost and there is nobody correcting the problem, which starts at home with the parents. They are NOT raising their children. People better wake up and get it together out here!!!
