What's Up in Stallion Springs?

 

Police Chief Mike Grant made a presentation, Gangs 101, to Neighborhood Watch group on Wednesday, April 23. In addition to gangs locally, Grant detailed the various gangs on the west coast, how to spot them and their organizational structure. He noted that most gang members are quite passive to the general public so as not to attract attention. However, they can become aggressive if provoked. Currently there are no major gang problems in Stallion Springs but it is always good to be vigilant.

Note was made of the KCFD Fire Prevention Event to be held at Meadowbrook park in Golden Hills on May 17. Tehachapi Crime Watch will be holding a Child ID event for the "Take 2" Project, part of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The SSPD will be represented at the event.

The PAL open house resulted in 16 new members for Neighborhood Watch.

A National Night Out for Stallion Springs is in the planning stages by Neighborhood Watch. The tentative date is Tuesday, Aug. 5. There were 45 residents in attendance.
