News Story first pitch

I want to go around and interview the "locals of Manchester". However this isn't a man on the street sort of deal, we would be interviewing people you regular see around Manchester like the man in the motorized wheelchair, the man who sits on the bench across from the church, and the stand up motorcycle guy you see if we can catch him.
