On Tuesday, January 23, the 6000-6100 blocks of McPherson and Kingsbury held a block meeting at the SDCC office. Sgt. Bob George, Sgt. Beverly Noble, Officer Jerry Barnes and Officer Tom Bergman of 7th District Police were guests at the meeting.
Two items that were discussed are important to our entire neighborhood: WHEN SHOULD YOU CALL THE POLICE? ANYTIME YOU SEE OR HEAR ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS—breaking glass, a gun shot or an unfamiliar person hanging around your block.
If you don’t call, the police don’t know something may be wrong.
The police would rather be called for a false alarm than after a crime has been committed. • HOW SHOULD YOU CALL THE POLICE? DIAL 911—even if it is not an emergency, the 911 operators dispatch all patrol cars Sgt. Noble and Officers Barnes and Bergman have only recently been assigned to Skinker DeBaliviere; their area includes City Limits to Kingshighway, Delmar to Lindell.
They were welcomed by Kingsbury/McPherson neighbors and given a special thanks—all three of them were off duty the night of the block meeting.
