May 20 – May 21, 2014

Today’s Good News
A woman recently emailed to thank Sector 111 Lt. Dan Minton for his work and the work of First Precinct officers in her neighborhood. “I take your newsletter to my parents’ house every month to show them how your team is helping make our neighborhood a safer place to live. It’s alleviated a bit of strife on my parents’ part, who still think of Church Hill, circa 1996, which as we both know, was a very different neighborhood then,” she wrote.

“Your writing in your newsletter, and really, all of your communication on social media (www.Twitter.com/RPDLtDan) is always funny, insightful, educational, and appreciated! Additionally, the absence of drug dealers and their patrons at 24th and Jefferson is wonderful. It’s changed the dynamic of that whole surrounding area! Well done! Our neighborhood is better for having you here! Thank you for all you do!”
