    most businesses now have security cameras so the POPO can post such footage: you will get a much better response when police department start offering some money for information: police have a set of coke money at they disposal so share some of the drug cash with the civilians: try post the details of the robbers the community small
    and a few dollars in exchange for information

    Day and night the big bike riders are terrorizing the Bellevue community with noise pollution. I have nothing against riding past on your bike but revving over and over and peeling out and being a nuisance with this loud fracas on the road. During the day is bad enough but they wake us from rest at night also. This cannot be right, what is our recourse? Someone who knows the law please advise. Police officers: if you are reading this please help us get back our peaceful community
