[Highland Park] Suspicious characters?
My partner also saw two strangers wandering up and down our street last week. It was Sat. morning around 10am. They went up and down Jackson St for 15 minutes and then walked down Heberton. Both were African-American, black hood, one in 20s and one in 30s, one big and one small and skinny. One was talking the entire time on a cell phone.
Please! Everyone! Call the police and report this! It's very important that the police have a paper trail regarding all incidents, no matter how small. Don't think of this as overreacting...incident reports help increase the amount of attention our neighborhood gets from the police which will have a direct effect on the future of our neighborhood and how safe it is. We are making great strides...let's not slack on it. These characters may not be up to anything, but do you want to take that chance?

There is an older woman who walks up and down Jackson Street near my home. Sometimes she stands on a corner for several minutes, looking around. Should I report her? Or not unless she happens to be a person of color and wearing a hoodie? Please, friends, let's be vigilant but not vigalantees! Trying to enter a door on a front porch or walking up someone's driveway and scoping out the garage is suspicious -- absolutely. Walking up and down the street, talking on a cell phone may simply be a neighbor looking for fresh air and a quiet or confidential place to talk to a friend. --dan
