Just curious if anyone follows this page on Facebook? It is a very good way to follow the crime trends in the area. There is a substantial number of incidents in Belleville and Granite City. Lots of stolen car chases in GC that lead to either the McKinley (McGetaway) bridge or the Chain of Rocks bridge and then divert into north St Louis. I have a friend that works at the Wood River Wal Mart. She told me that workers doing overnight stocking at the GC Wal Mart are not allowed to go outside without security escorting them.

Our friends from north county and St. Louis city love our choice of autos. I spoke with a friend whose son is an officer and we apparently have something called an LPR camera that detects stolen plates and the criminals are easily chased. I love reading stories where these thugs end up crashing and go to that great chop shop in the sky.they did not fail, because they did what their country asked of them....

I follow the page on FB. It seems there are quite a bit of Missourians coming to the East side to check out the vehicles and take them for a spin to the other side of the river. It does not surprise me about the GC Walmart, I refuse to shop there anymore.
