If You See Something, Say Something:
Leave your valuables at home

The more I see Metro riders having their cell phones, wallets and other personal items taken, the more I tend to leave everything of value at home when I ride the Metro rail system.

Now, we all know it should not be that way, but the way things are going with crime on Metro, it is safer. Now that it’s summer time, the people who are committing crimes are riding Metro more often.

Most people like me do not want to get involved when crime happens on the Metro. That is the job of the police. Not ours.

Plus, we pay the Metro a lot of money. They need to use that wisely and hire more police and train them more to deal with this crime wave.
