Police Get Sneaky
City police now have a new way to catch cell phone and seat belt violations by local drivers. Sgt. Glenn Porter says on Wednesday they put a plain clothes cop on the sidewalk on Arthur Street relaying violations with a hand held radio to an officer further down who pulled over the vehicles. About 40 tickets were issued. Porter says it's a tactic they hope to use on a regular basis.
