Tim did you hear about the cop at 14 that was involved in the towing scam?

here is the link to the towing scam. I guess something similar happened with cops from 25 a couple of years age.

Anonymous 11:42, yes, I did. I'm not surprised, as 14 has the majority of the laziest and most corrupt cops in the city.

I agree, I went in there (14) to tell them about open air drug dealing happening at that moment on my block and they told me to call 911!

Who lives on the first floor of that building that was getting tagged. Can anyone name a gangbanger?

Timmy, Its important to know who is doing what in our community. Some of these guys are blatantly out there and very recognizable. If we are to clean out the neighborhood of the few people responsible for the majority of the problems then we need to get plates, addresses, even names. We need to network and be informed when we call police and provide information. Please post something to that effect on your site. Thanks

Anonymous 12:51, that's 14 for ya. They should've sent someone over there, though.

Anonymous 1:28, all I know is that gangbangers live in that building. There's only two floors, so they likely have to live on the 1st floor.

Anonymous 1:38, can I ask, what exactly are you talking about? When there's gangbangers acting up, drunks doing whatever, or something else? I don't quite understand what you're saying. As far as getting addresses, names, plates, I don't really do it for two reasons. One, there could be good people living at these addresses, or the cars could be stolen. I don't want to put good residents in danger whatsoever. It's not worth them getting hurt. Two, I don't think the police would want me to do that. I've been approached by the CAPS Sergeant out of the 25th and he's asked me not to put that information out there. Residents were complaining to him about that. If I do put that information, I could get in trouble with CPD. I don't want to get arrested or have any lawsuits filed against me.

Re: the towing scam: is this why I see tow trucks flying towards accident sites? Because they're competing for the tow? The other night I was heading home around 1am and saw a girl on rollerblades almost get run down by a tow truck that was going 50mph around the Logan monument, then it almost got in an accident with another speeding tow truck. VERY scary.

Hi Timmy - what's the deal with the dead goats? Do you think it's related to practice of Santeria?

Timmy, I just heard from a reliable source that the teenager that found the bodies at 2922 ridgeway was a gangbanger, white, with short blond hair. We have all seen this idiot on the street before. Is he breaking into any other buildings? Occupied buildings? Garages? If we know who he is its easier to identify him to police. We do need to get granular and specific when we report to the police. I understand that we need to protect the identities of innocent people but what about identifying the obvious known gangbanger and their whereabouts. How about the affiliations of various individuals or buildings? We all need to have some level of knowledge about these guys if we are to fight them effectively. Thats all Im saying.

Anonymous 12:34, I've definitely seen him before. I see him quite often, actually. The sad part about it is that his mom approves of him being in a gang, and I think she's in one herself. When I was going to Monroe, my "friends" would talk to her and I would just stand there watching. I'm not sure if he's broken into any other buildings or not. Unfortunaley, I don't know his name, or his mom's name. As far as the gangbangers go, if you have their information, you need to report it to the police. I can't really, legally, put up their information without getting in trouble with the police or getting hurt by the gangbangers.

Anonymous 12:29, I think it might be. But I've never heard of something like this before. It was kind of creepy to hear, I admit.

Does anyone have more information on the Kelvyn park drug bust (ie the address on Kildare)?
