"Police Reach out to Local Neighborhood"
by: Kelsey McKinney
This article in the times talks about the Shreveport Police department and their extra effort to help fight crime. Some 30 officers knocked on doors of Sherwood Park neighborhood residents arming them with information on how to report crime. However they were not able to reach one man. The resident spoke only spanish and the officers acknowledged that those who do not speak English often don't report crimes. This article interested me because I've heard about neighborhoods who don't report crimes because they think there protecting themselves. Neighborhoods are full of children and children tend to misbehave. Juvenile crimes should be reported because the earlier we can fix them, the sooner young children can better understand what is right and wrong. I remember committing crimes as a child, and I really never learned my lesson until i was finally caught. The sooner we can educate the juvenile population, the lesser the chances of juvenile delinquents.
