This one will have to be quick, because I gotta get to work…
Important article to read in today’s CA… MPD is asking private individuals and firms with video cameras to register their cameras with CyberWatch. That way, MPD knows those cameras are there and can ask for their video when investigating incidents. There are a lot of cameras pointing at alleyways in the Downtown area, and it is very important that the owners of these cameras let MPD know about them. I’ve heard of several incidents over the years where criminals hide out in alleys and wait for passersby to rob as they take a shortcut to their car, home or hotel. Video from private cameras would help MPD identify these crooks, and over time the bad guys would become afraid to hang out in alleys for fear they are being watched.
One other item… I heard this weekend that the BP on Riverside has really tasty, big, meaty frog legs for lunch on Fridays. Yeah I know that doesn’t do anyone much good on a Tuesday, but if I wait until Friday I’ll forget. Make a note on your calendar.
Okay, off to work, more at lunchtime. Got another website ready to roll out.
