30 cars were vandalized in our area last night, two on our own street. Also, it appears a child predator is being very bold. This is also the same area that was covered in the news this summer, that had a man walking into houses where women were home alone. Where are the police you ask..............never seen one car in the year I have lived here. It took them 20 minutes to respond to our neighbors call. Here is a report from a street close by. > > > Just to let you know, a few weeks ago Greg and I had left to go out to > dinner with friends, leaving Lauren and Maddie at home.
