The crash didn't occur in East Liberty, it happened right in Highland Park, on North St. Clair and Janero (the lane that runs behind my home).  In the daytime, when I and my children or anyone else could have been on that sidewalk.  And the drug deal was occurring by the church!?#!  It was one of those days when I questioned why I live in the city. 
 
I am thankful to the officer for spotting the deal and intervening.  I support having more police on patrol.

We just read in the paper this morning that a Zone 5 police officer who suspected a drug deal at N. Euclid and Hampton (at St. Andrew's) pursued the dealer into East Liberty and was involved in a crash.  The paper stated that the officer had to go to the hospital (and so did the suspect)-

I'd like to say thank you to the officer for helping to stop criminal activity in Highland Park.  Hopefully the officer's injuries were not too serious.

My husband has wondered if he has seen drug deals on Heberton near Wellesley, and others Ive spoken with have mentioned seeing suspicious activity around HP east of Highland Avenue.  Perhaps this kind of diligent police presence will have an effect- we can only hope.

Again, thank you to the officer and we hope you are recovering- you make a difference in our neighborhood!!
