Were they younger? I may have seen this couple on Monday.

Does DeKalb Police have a website where we could go to get information to answer Kathie's question?

The Crime Mapper doesn't have that level of detail. http://web.co.dekalb.ga.us/DK_Police/pol-crimetrac.html

It would be great if we had a Brookhaven Police Department so we could get email alerts for information like this like the Dunwoody Police Department does.

Unfortunately DeKalb is apparently too big to make such an email notification list feasible or useable.

Eric,

Since half of my neighborhood is in Chamblee, I've been a long subscriber to Chamblee's weekly emails. Informative, timely, and even quite humorous.

I had some suspicious activity at a house in the 'hood recently. I just emailed the officer that authors the Neighborhood Watch emails, and he's responded back and forth a few times. Met him at our last neighborhood meeting and know on a first name basis now.

Therein lies one of the reasons I'm voting for a new city.
