6. Here they get alerted for stolen cars, so they pull them over

and arrest them, so people who steal cars stay out of our town.

One time this lady sleeping in her car. (not that she was homeless, just looking at a 3 hour drive late at night, people do sleep in cars here so they drive alert) and some guy was going around breaking into cars with a tire iron, saw her pocketbook on the seat beside her and beat her with the iron when she wouldn't give it up. Police knocked on all the doors on adjoining streets, then expanded out 6 streets in all directions for ring camera vids which sometimes pick up cars. Took them 3 days as the guy was from out of town but they got him. Don't like people beating on women here. I'll bet they knocked on a few hundred doors.
