Chicken Steve

Steve Abrams is running away from reporters.

He would not comment to the Washington Post on the allegations, so we can't balance the accusations with his rebuttal.

The Gazette tried to reach Abrams as well, with no luck, telling readers, "Abrams did not return numerous phone calls."

In an attempt to be fair, the Gazette did quote Abrams as having said before the alleged assault, "I . . . don’t have to take a back seat in the respect I have for the law."

We just checked Abrams' website, www.abramsformontgomery.com, but he hasn't updated his "Steve Abrams In the News" section yet. We'll keep an eye out for sightings.
