Rockville City police were called to a shopping center to investigate a report of an assault Wednesday afternoon, May 11, 2022. An individual told officers they had been the victim of a 2nd-degree assault in the parking lot of the Fallsgrove Village Center at 1:28 PM, according to crime data.
Fallsgrove has had a lot of assaults lately. I guess all of Montgomery County has.There are not enough Police.
ReplyDeleteSilly rabbit, you can't have police everwhere at all times.
DeleteI seriously doubt that hiring more police would reduce crime. Maybe having cameras installed along with signs alerting would-be thugs know they are being filmed would have a deterrent effect.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is some folks wanted to defend police but can you get them back to order just because you now realize all they can do is show precence not force and I guess the criminals have figured that out first that much havoc could have been controlled.
DeleteYou all wanted to defund the police.You have and now your a victim of

ReplyDeleteWell first of all our shopping centers are overcrowded need more parking area and more shopping area in this County!!
ReplyDeleteCrime rising in every corner of County, elected "Leaders" told to let the small stuff go, turn-style jumping in Metro, petty assaults - hard times these days for those committing petty crimes, cut them some slack and understanding.
ReplyDeletePenalties are so soft now with judges not going the distance that offenders don’t care. We’re set up to be victims. And, God forbid, we attempt to protect and defend what’s ours!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePeople will get sick of the crime just like they did in the 1980s.It was the minority communities who were asking the police to step up back then. Now it's both the minority and wealthy communities that are being targeted by criminals, I bet you will see a reaction soon in elections that are coming up.
DeleteThe MCPD was not defunded so please stop writing that.
ReplyDeleteThere is a correct perception for bad guys that cops don't have backing. Bad guys are emboldened. Whether it's by having fewer police, or because criminals feel the can get away with a lot more, the result is the same. Give it a few years, and when we get back to being "tough on crime", and these things will work themselves out. In the meantime, we all collectively created this mess.
