We received the email below from one of our clients and we couldn’t be happier to do as much as possible to help increase the resources used to fight crime around Ohio State.
Please reach out to the local police departments and voice your concern. You can quickly & easily contact them via email, Facebook, Twitter, or a phone call.
Dear Campus Handyman:
The reports that there have recently been multiple break-ins and serious armed robberies around the Ohio State campus are disturbing.
We’d like your help in passing along contact information for both the OSU Police as well as the Columbus Division of Police [enclosed below]. Our hope is that the police will divert more resources and pay more attention to this area of town as more people write, email, call and tweet about it.
The brave men and women in these police forces work very hard and are very good at what they do, but they are likely spread too thin in a city as large as Columbus and a campus as big as Ohio State.
In years past, it seems that whenever crime in the OSU area has spiked, these two police departments, along with the City of Columbus, have been able to work together on a program that appeared to minimize these types of incidents. Hopefully concerned neighbors reaching out will spearhead a similar campaign.
We appreciate you passing along this information to your clients via email, Facebook, Twitter and more.
