Policing is not rocket science. It's not a knock on police officers, but like newspaper editors we don't have crystal balls to see the future or know what all is going on unless someone tells us.
We have some very good police officers and investigators in both Escambia counties and Santa Rosa County, but most will quickly tell you it takes people in a community to point them in the right direction. It takes people in the community helping the police chase down the 'bad guys' instead of chasing down shadows.
We've solved a lot of burglaries and vandalism in Flomaton and the surrounding areas...
