Report Violation

Are you sure you want to report the following content as a violation?

Steve E. Swenson has a good little story today on a local neighborhood that's trying to help solve its crime problems. Seems the Stonecreek neighborhood in the south part of town has seen quite a bit of vandalism, graffiti, theft, etc. Neighbors are so sick of it that they pooled $3,000 to offer for rewards. Problem is they can't find anyone to actually oversee the rewards. Apparently the Secret Witness program wants to reserve their tipline for more serious crimes. There may be a solution in the works utilizing the city's graffiti line -- if there is demand. So is there demand out there? Any locals frustrated with "lesser crimes" and the fact that they often never get solved? Willing to put up your own money for a reward? -- Davin McHenry
