MPD in action on the Street - again.

MPD was on the street early Monday morning before 8AM. Why? An alert and astute neighbor noticed that there was a person with a large bag digging through the big blue recyclable bins.

Turns out Trash Picking is a crime in Monrovia. According to Officer Cindrich of the MPD Special Enforcement Team that I spoke with, this person was released with a warning and given referrals to local services for the homeless.

It pays to call. Who knew before this that this was a crime and something MPD needs to be alerted to. It makes sense, they could well be looking to see who's home or not for other reasons too.

Lock it and stay safe. Frank
