It really does come down to just paying attention. With that will come a recognition of patterns, of modus operandi, that will make for good fodder for an efficient sting operation. I can only imagine, in my optimistic mind, that the police are doing their best with limited budget resources, and will come as close to this as they can. Especially if we can help them! Keeping an activity log of descriptions of persons and any available automobile activity (including license plate numbers) and the dates and times they are active, and submitting a copy of it to the Parkside Community Policing Liaison, Michelle Lauture, should pay off in the end, if enough eyes are watching at different times of the day.<BR/><BR/>With a solid effort, we should see results before long.Michelle Soulierehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02896807228114420113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17769419.post-59303808816072301342008-08-15T11:16:00.000-04:002008-08-15T11:16:00.000-04:00Thanks for your whistler coverage.

I also see and hear something suspicious or outright criminal most early mornings getting to and warming up my vehicle or biking. There is also always a prostitute working somewhere between park ave. up mellon and congress.<BR/> The suggestion I would like to contribute to this problem is to have a proactive police presence. .Have the police take a car (not an obvious undercover crown-vic) . Park the car ,turn the radio off,roll down the windows and listen. You could make a big difference in short time.<BR/> I don't see how the police receiving a call that hopefully makes the priority of response time; then it's only after the fact and things tend to get a little blurry when the suspect is approached.An officer when things are a little quiet could do this when time allows. Eye ball the activity ,make an arrest.<BR/> You really can't be in the hood for long without coming across something like the whistler and sometimes worse. Listen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
