Crime Update Reports

  • There have been some incidences of home invasions in the area just north of Hudson in the block near Indianola. Witnesses report 2 or 3 young black men who knock and then kick in the door, armed with a gun, and demand cash and electronics. Please be sure your locks are secure and consider reinforcing your door jambs.

SoHud Shout Out!

Thanks to our alert neighbor Morgan, who heard a clatter & sprang from the house to see what was the matter, only to find a smoking vehicle with its front end hanging down and lights turned off apparently fleeing a hit-and-run. Police were able to use the license number to locate the vehicle, and the driver was last seen in the back of a cruiser. Good looking out!
