Between May 4 and May 17, 2011 there have been reports of at least three shootings in and around Heller Park. The May 8th, 2011, Mother’s Day, shooting resulted in a homicide.
Whether you just live in the area, own a business or a home, we are ALL affected by these crimes. Bullets know no names! Once a shot is fired, the bullet has to go somewhere whether that is hitting a passing car, student waiting for the school bus, a person such as yourself, a family member or your personal property it is a THREAT to ALL of us.
PLEASE JOIN THE RALLY AT HELLER PARK, between Wheeling and Utica – 53rd to 56th streets, ON JUNE 9TH, 2011 AT 7:00 pm to show your concerns.
The Heller Park Neighbors’ association has asked the Crime Commissioner, Carol Bush, to speak and give advice on what we need to do as concerned citizens and residences to take back our neighborhood!!! In addition, Police Captain Randy Hughes from the Riverside Division will be there to answer questions. Plus we have asked some of our elected officials to be in attendance.
If you have never attended a neighborhood meeting before this is the time YOU NEED ATTEND. The more concerned citizens we have at the rally the more influence we have on the police force, elected officials and criminals. SO PLEASE COMMIT TO ATTEND THIS RALLY. We need EVERYONE’S support.
Limited seating will be provided so to ensure you have a seat please bring a lawn chair.
In case of inclement weather, the rally will be held at Southern Hills Baptist Church on 56th and Lewis.
