But once they have the license, they have to wait three days to get married. And that, Shaffer said, is what makes Toledo so attractive to the impetuous.

Each person needs a valid ID with an address more than 30 days old and a Social Security card. Each person also will need $42 cash for the marriage license. Ministers hang around the courthouse and will perform a wedding ceremony for about $15.

Michiganders 18 and older can get a marriage license in their own state for $23 cash. Couples need certified happens to somebody not even 100 yards away, you start feeling insecure." Police are aware of security concerns in the 8 Mile corridor. In September, the Wayne County Sheriffs Department began an enhanced road patrol, thanks to resident and merchant insistence on more police presence and an OK from Detroit police. Department officials also have met with area residents and merchants to get them more involved in crime-fighting, and are helping create a business association. Their involvement capped a three-county, 13-community initiative to redevelop 27 miles of the corridor and improve its perception.

Sharlan Douglas, director of the 8 Mile Boulevard Association, which created and is pushing the initiative, said an important proposal is to "make businesses less hospitable to crime," with suggestions for better lighting and safe parking lots. Top Value Muffler shop was not open Tuesday, but Kranz's stepfather, shooting "just seems to make it a little more serious. We talked about not keeping a lot of money on us but really there's nothing we can do," said Jones, 20. "If somebody's going to come with a gun, I'm not going to risk my life for a couple of dollars." Two men attempted to rob the Oil Dispatch at 8 Mile and Evergreen about a month ago. Manager Dannie Irvine was able to knock the gun from the gunman's hands, and kick him between the legs.

Monday's shooting has him reviewing his security measures: no loitering in the lobby, no service for customers if they're not in their cars. "This thing just made me lock down a little tighter; where I may have given a little leeway before, now that's the right thing to do, without feeling bad about it," said Irvine, 38. "We have to have control over the situation." And for Darrell Gregg, owner of USA Paper Ribbon nearby, the shooting reinforced his difficult decision to sell the building that has housed his business for 14 years. He had just put it on the block Friday, and plans a move to Southfield but still on 8 Mile. The shooting may prompt another decision for Gregg and his employees.

"We've been discussing today getting gun permits. I mean, we already have bars on the windows. we'd all feel a lot safer if we have weapons," he said.

They could not especially because Kranz's wife is pregnant with twin boys due "any day now," Hart said. "We're going to have to hire new mechanics, but it won't be very easy. It's like inviting someone into a slaughterhouse," Hart said. "But we've got to do it for Tony." Free Press Staff Writer LA Johnson contributed to this report.
