[Highland Park] carpenter recommendations?
by Erik Schark 17 Jun '08

17 Jun '08

Hi, neighbors - A while back someone requested carpenter recommendations, but I didn't save that e-mail. Someone was supposed to come replace our stair railing three months ago and is still putting us off saying he'll "come next week." Would the person who got the carpenter recommendations mind either re-posting it or sending me the list of recommended carpenters? I think we're ready to move on and get someone else to do this job. Thank you! Erik

[Highland Park] Potential Hate crime/Breaking and entering
by rfh151＠stu.aii.edu 16 Jun '08

On Wednesday June 11th 2008, a Potential hate crime/breaking and entering was performed on the 800 block of Mellon st. I personally walked outside to my car to retrieve an item I forgot to grab when I came in, there was 7 American American males sitting on a porch across the street, and one of them yelled out quoting "Fucking Fagot" as I walked back into my secured building. As I am walking back into my apartment, making sure to lock the door behind me, I made a quick phone call to a friend, and as I am on the phone with my friend, I hear several loud banging noises at my secured front door, and walked to my apartment door and looked out my peep hole and seen one of the males ramming their body into the first front door, and broke it open, and set a brick in front of that door so it wouldn't shut. Right then, I called 911 and explained to the police what was going on, and they said a squad car would be right there. I hung up, and walked away from the door, and looked out the window, and seen the same male run back across the street, and through the front door, picked up the brick, and pointed at my apartment door, and threw the brick at my door, then ran into it, telling me to come out, because hes going to "fucking kill me" Right after all this happened, I called 911 again, and let them know that the suspect was now in my building, and was trying to break into my apartment. Cops then showed up, 4-5 minutes after I made the first 911 call, asked me a few questions, about what the 7 suspects looked like, and all 9 cop cars took off looking for these males. About 1/2 hour later, a squad car came back, picked me up, and took me where they made a potential 4 arrests of people I described to be the criminal. None of the people they arrested were the direct guy that did this, but 2 of them were sitting on the porch with that group. Considering all this has happened, I have contacted my landlord, and will be moving out of this city/neighborhood. I feel that there is not enough being done to protect the residents that live here, and live a normal life, and don't associate with anyone but them selfs. I just thought that it was necessary to send this email, and have everyone be aware that no matter your sexuality, there is always crime out there, and to be safe I want to thank the police department for being there for me, even though it did take a few minutes to respond, but a car can only get you to a place so fast.

[Highland Park] Leash Law or Neighborhood Ordinance
by Pamala Davis 15 Jun '08

15 Jun '08

Earlier this evening while putting my garbage out, I found that 1 of the garbage cans had been knock down and the garbage inside the bag was ripped open and the contents all over the alley. I have seen dogs with their owners unleashed and running up and down the alley just like a Private Dog Run. The most unusual sighting was 2 weeks ago. A large black dog with tags, no owner, that went into my neighbors garbage, emerging with a large bagel still in the plastic bag and went from house to house to looking for more to pillage. He retreated into a driveway on Hampton Street to enjoy his treats. Never the less, I cleaned up the garbage and I hope this is not a usual occurrence on this side of Highland Park. Is there someone we can contact when we see the dogs roaming free, charging and barking at you (Me) and your (My) children, or ripping up garbage? Are there still Dog Catchers? Is there any responsibility for Dog Owners? Any input would be helpful. Pamala Davis
