Crime wave?

I saw the bad news about Rock City Guitars. I don't know if these are connected, but several nights back there was a break-in (attempt??) at the convenience store on the corner of School & Highland. I was coming home from work and heard the alarm and there were a couple of cruisers in front.

If you own a business, keep an eye out. And folks, do your neighbors a favor and keep an eye out as well for any suspicious folks and call the police if you see anything- don't try to play hero.

And, if you have windows that are accessible from the first floor, or from fire escapes -- LOCK THEM when you are not home.

...and hope that it makes a difference. Hell, I had my windows locked and went into the kitchen for 30 seconds. When I came back my screen was opened.

We need to catch these criminals and put them in stocks where people can throw eggs at them.

Another Broken Window

Last night (or very early this morning), a rock was thrown through a window at Salon Femia's new location (on Holland where the frame shop used to be). Nothing was stolen.

YET another window

This weekend, someone threw a brick through the window of the liquor and wine store that's on the corner of Willow and Broadway, in Ball Square. This is coupled with the news I'm hearing about slashed tires, other vandalism (supposedly, that's why the Brooks mural was painted over: someone chipped a bunch off the bottom of it), and the general crime upsurge in Boston. Crazy!
