Smile, Crooks And Vandals! You're On Camera


Our area of the country has always been known for its brand of frontier justice.  That continues even into the 21st century.

KRVN radio is reporting this morning that in Lexington, Neb., the local police department is investigating vandalism to the front glass entrance to the Lexington Senior High School.  The incident occurred early Saturday morning, as the vehicle and individuals were caught on surveillance footage while committing the crime.  

We thought this was worth noting since many Dorchester homes, businesses and our K-12 school have installed cameras over the last few years.  More and more often, we are hearing of Dorchester residents who have cameras watching over their property.  We know of at least 15 homes in Dorchester's village limits that have electronic surveillance.

Even several homes in the countryside have cameras monitoring the premises 24-7.

The message to trouble makers and thieves: Smile. Chances are good that you are on camera!
