[Chat] Suspicious Person 3000 Block of Barclay

[judy berlin]

Thnx Sharon,

Do I have to use some type of code in order for the police to arrive in 
a timely fashion and while the person is still ar'd? I know what to do 
in these situations but again the elderly can be victimised. I hope to 
remain quick when I get more elderly.

Judy
