They caught a guy who was stealing full size aluminium light poles a few years back. He was salvahing them in philly i think. When they caught him he had already been do yhis for a year. So why was a salvage yard in philly be accepting and paying for new, perfectly fine light poles without questioning the situation? I feel salvage locations should be held equally responsible!
There is a lot of truth in your comment. I heard from a Baltimore City Police friend a few years ago that indeed some very organized criminals from the inner city have plain white work vans and trucks which they load with a few helpers. They drive out to the burbs and drop off the street watchers which wander neighborhoods in the over night hours looking for things to steal. When they find items to take they call the truck driver on a cell phone and he meets them when they are ready to pull off the steal.
Parker had been convicted for assaulting two police officers, breaking and entering and drug abuse. The details of his criminal past can be found here and here. Parker sped into the parking lot of New Destiny Center church in Aurora, crashed into a car, then fired at people who came to his aid. The shooting killed Josephine Echols, the mother of a pastor at the church, police said. Echols’ nephew Antonio Milow, an off-duty Denver police officer who was attending a church service, then shot and killed Parker, authorities said.

Hey I know, why don't we do some "aesthetics" work on White Marsh Plaza. That will solve everything because as we all know, if it looks more presentable, people respect the property more. Please, get real you guys. City crime is and will continue to overflow into Perry Hall and criminals are smarter than they are given credit for, they do it for a living. As the economy gets worse and the middle class continues to be taxed into oblivion, expect this kind of stuff to increase. The more people's backs are pushed against the wall, the more they will lash out like this just to survive and they are smart enough to get away with it. At this rate, Perry Hall will be kind of like Parkville in a few years as the tentacles from Baltimore City spread into respectable neighborhoods like Perry Hall and White Marsh. People need to get real and offer real solutions. Fix Baltimore city starting with Parkville. Seems crime is on the rise, so what will our council and governor do? Nothing, that's what. I really can't believe no one seems to see what's going on here.
