300 blocks of E. Little Creek, Fort Worth, and San Antonio continue to be criminal cancer of Wards Corner
December 6, 2011The 300 blocks of E. Little Creek Road, Fort Worth Ave, and San Antonio Blvd continue to be a criminal cancer for Wards Corner. In the month of November there were 15 reported crimes in those three blocks. The crimes committed included aggravated assault, burglary, narcotics, robbery, larceny, vandalism, home invasion, and fraud.
The revitalization of Wards Corner must start with the blighted substandard apartments in these 3 blocks. The City of Norfolk must continue to purchase those substandard housing blocks. The result will be less crime in Wards Corner, less substandard housing in our City, and the ability to attract new businesses to the adjacent business district. The statistics for the month of November 2011 are below:
