The Eye is a registered user.

Actually, a job well done for *all* concerned (The victims, the MVFD Batallion Chief and the responding MVPD officers). When citizens are proactive in reporting crime in this fashion, they become the extra eyes and ears of the police, and a vital link in the chain of crime prevention and solution.

MVPD doesn't put up with any ----

Unlike Palo Alto where they hassle visitors and ignore the panhandlers.

At least they managed to run off that short guy with the baseball hat it seems. Only took 3 or batteries on local bouncers and wait staff.

The bouncers keep downtown Paly safer than the cops do

ON the GUN give credit to Mr Ingram for the Mac 11 it is not a UZI by any stretch and a machine pistol not assault weapon and is used by Military and Police.

Good Job and Many thanks to the MV PD for the quick response and action to get the bad folk off the streets.
