One of the aspects of a crime wave is that you know it has arrived when it achieves public attention. Consider the following news report from Fayette.
Local ABC Channel 11 reports,
Fayetteville police are asking the public for help in solving a rash of break-ins and burglaries.
Investigators say they have a narrow time span for the crime wave from early April to Wednesday, but they're not ruling out any cases before then.
In the meantime, some residents worry the police aren't moving fast enough.
"It's my kids and I worry about their safety and I'm mad as hell cause it's my house," burglary victim Taniesha Wright said.
Wright and her neighbors say they are fed up with the rash of burglaries in their neighborhood.
