I should amend my original post to say that I have called the police, reported the issue and plate numbers, but there hasn't been any follow-up by NHPD. I have left phone numbers, and said that I'd like to speak with an officer.

My frustration isn't entirely with the Police though. If I happen to catch the activity in progress, I'm not sure how quickly they can respond.

That's not to say that the police couldn't do better. I want to see stricter enforcement of the laws. Weeks back two cars stopped in traffic on Q ave (towards Rt. 80) They parked in traffic, and the passengers had a fight. it was 2:30 a.m, and everyone in the neighborhood called it in.

When the police responded they let them drive off. I saw this, and approached the Police. The Police claimed the people were just lost, and looking for the highway. One cop commented "a little alcohol and stupidity never hurt anybody." Although all these citizens called in a brawl to 911, and the Police smelled alcohol, they let these offenders off.

Wow. That is classic NHPD right there.

This hearsay won't get you very far. Start recording these dumb animals. Find a young person to help with the technology.

Perhaps the police monitor this site more than they do the streets.

I find the following phrase gets the police to arrive.

"If I don't see a police officer in five minutes I am going to deal with this myself."

You can also try the State Police, bright flashlights, camera flashes, etc...

Forgot to mention; this activity continues down the empty side of the street from the oyster farm entrance all the way to Oxford street.

I am considering mounting a camera viewing my stretch of the street. Participation from other homes in this area would perhaps make it more effective. Anybody interested is welcome to contact me. d62@snet.net

Wish the police would ride on Lenox st from time to time. Drug dealers meet their clients over by the factory. I can see this activity on weekend from my windows. Addicts park and wait afternoons & nights.

about 2 months ago , While at the Q Ave/East Grand Ave traffic light at 4:30pm, my husband and I saw a Caucasian motorist pull over to the road side on Q Ave. An African American bicyclists then pulled up to the jeep. An exchange of cash (from jeep to bike)was made and the motorist drove off heading toward Foxon blvd. we had our child with us and were literally parked next to the deal going down in broad day light. Neither party in the transaction seemed very concerned that we were blatantly observing them. Our Jaws agape!

Jeep Liberty silver blue color? I have seen the same thing. I have called the police numerous times. They always come, albeit late. The person that I have witnessed actually selling drugs is a big fat guy. He is light skinned, Hispanic or Caucasian and dresses like a thug. If you see him call the police. They know who he is and are looking for him.

This was a red Jeep with a white male driver and a very dark skinned thin man on a bike. But I bet they all know each other from being in the "biz". I am very freaked out by this blatant display as I am trying to raise a drug-free family here in the Heights! I do not want this sort of vibe around my house.... its very negative and dangerous. I sure wish we had better relations with our police force. What to do?
I will keep an eye out for the guys you describe and call when I spot 'em.
