[Highland Park] another bike theft alert
by Heather Cramer 16 Jun '12

16 Jun '12

This evening I was in the side yard with my daughter when we came back around to the front and saw a teenage-early 20s guy slowly creeping up our walkway on one of our bikes (the one we didn't have locked that was on our front porch). I was confused, not realizing at first it was our bike. I ran after him and yelled, alerting some neighbors. My husband ran out and one of the neighbors pointed him in the thieve's direction. They guy had already left the bike in what is presumably his yard (at 630 N. Negley near the intersection of Hays) and went to talk to a guy in a parked car. While the guy's back was turned my husband grabbed the bike and brought it home. Please be vigilant about keeping your bikes and other belongings secured. 'Tis the season for thieving, unfortunately.

[Highland Park] Transportation to Colfax?
by Deb Polk 16 Jun '12

16 Jun '12

Our daughter will be starting Colfax in the fall. We were wondering whether there was anyone else in Highland Park attending Colfax and if so, what the transportation options were. Thanks, Deb Polk "It is a function of a kind of unfortunate mentality in this country where, over time, we have become a spending nation and not an investing nation," said Michael Steenhoek of the Soy Transportation Coalition, an industry group pushing for waterways improvements. "We just need to get back to being an investing nation. Great nations invest in themselves," he said. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, March 18, 2012.

[Highland Park] bike theft alert
by Jana Finder 16 Jun '12

16 Jun '12

Neighbors, If you keep bicycles in your garages, please don't leave your garage doors open, even when you are home. Kids are scouting the streets looking for open garages and this afternoon I witnessed a kid walk up a neighbor's driveway and come riding out of the driveway on an adult bike. The homeowner was weeding on the other side of the house while this happened and did not hear or see anything. Many thanks to my grass cutter, who drove off and found the kids and the bike on Bryant St. and brought back the bike. By the way, I called Zone 5 to report it and they didn't want to hear about it. I was going to ask if they could have a patrol car ride around the neighborhood on the weekend but they didn't let me get that far. Jana Finder Beverly Place
