Public involvment is Important to helping solve crime!

The investigation we have conducted thus far regarding Friday's shooting does indicate that someone saw something and simply does not wish to cooperate.  Our department strives to provide effective public safety, but just imagine how much more effective we would be if the public would step up and help us accomplish that when they are in a position to do so.

The death of another resident on Saturday appears to be the result of blunt trauma, such as being struck by a vehicle.  We also had reports of shots fired in the area prior to learning of this event.  Again, it would appear that someone saw something and we again ask for the public to step up and help us resolve this matter.

Finally, we are working with the Department of Natural Resources to learn the details of the death of a man found in the canal near 155th and Indianapolis Boulevard on Sunday.  This man had been reported missing for several days prior to finding his body and we hope that anyone with any information regarding what happened between his disappearance and the time we found his body, would be very helpful.

Thank you and be safe,
