Re: shots fired

OMG! Delivery guy indeed. I’d never have thought these (and frequent) criminal activities happen around here like that. Although, please forgive me; coming from NY I am mostly oblivious until the robberies began stirring fear just weeks ago. I lived in NY for more than 22 years and have never encountered such in my neighborhood. Especially after gentrification; I mean although the crime was only a few blocks away, that is where most of it stayed. I am positive though that these activities will pass and/or become less frequent when it is realized criminal activity will not be tolerated near our homes. Please, nobody move, that is how it will end. This neighborhood is worth every effort. **** ** ** *From:* longview-park-community-watch(a)googlegroups.com [mailto: longview-park-community-watch(a)googlegroups.com] *On Behalf Of *Heath Hilliker *Sent:* Wednesday, December 14, 2011 4:11 PM *To:* longview-park-community-watch(a)googlegroups.com *Subject:* Re: shots fired**** ** ** One that I noticed is not a rental, the other is more difficult, it's around the corner from my house so all I see is the black Mercedes come down the street, go into the cul-de-sac behind my house and leave 45-60 seconds later, I started thinking he was a "delivery" guy when my neighbor and I saw him drive by with his overhead interior light on counting a large amount of cash. I'm in Victoria Place, so we do have our HOA to help with these things, too. They are doing everything they can as well.

If so, do we know if the property is rented or owned? If rented, perhaps we can find and appeal to the owner. All of you seem to be doing everything you can to reduce the crime activity on our blocks and it seems now just a matter of time. **** **** *From:* longview-park-community-watch(a)googlegroups.com [mailto: longview-park-community-watch(a)googlegroups.com] *On Behalf Of *Heath Hilliker *Sent:* Wednesday, December 14, 2011 3:49 PM *To:* longview-park-community-watch(a)googlegroups.com *Subject:* Re: shots fired**** **** We as neighbors need to figure out what we can do to combat this. I know we've got the neighborhood watch, but what else can we do? There have to be more aggressive steps we can take to get the violence out of our neighborhood. I recently asked police to step up patrols on my street due to some drug-related activity I've seen just in the last few weeks.
