• The Bucket Raid is Not at All Like a Bucket List. Unless You're Looking to Steal ATMs With Bulldozers Before You Die, In Which Case ...

  At 4 a.m. on Tuesday, two men drove a few blocks in a bulldozer to the Walgreens on 1306 N Beckley Avenue. They backed it up, and then rammed the 'dozer into a side wall, sending hundreds of goods flying off the shelves and creating a cloud of dust. See for yourself after the jump -- we've got two videos from different angles. According to the sole witness, who was sitting across the street and saw the whole incident, after the men broke through the wall, they ran away on foot. In the video, you

• Rec Shop Wreck: The Story Behind Sunday Afternoon's Busted-Up Customer Appreciation Celebration On Lower Greenville

  Gloria LevarioPolice took down Rec Shop owner Ben Sharon's information, but never served him a ticket for hosting his Sunday afternoon party without a permit.A couple days after the customer appreciation celebration at his Rec Shop skateboard and DJ store was unceremoniously broken up by a caravan of Dallas Police Department squad cars and officers (see video of the party being broken up here), the store's owner, Ben Sharon, seems to be taking all that went down on Sunday afternoon in stride: th

• "Suspicious Object" on a Light Pole in Front of Dallas News, WFAA Gets Police Attention

  Schutze is at the Don Hill trial today, and during the lunch break he was sent word that WFAA and The Dallas Morning News buildings on César Chávez were cordoned off by police. Till moments ago, the Dallas Police Department's Web site listed an active call down thataways with no further explanation, and as there's been no mention of said incident on either the 'FAA or DMN sites, well, we asked Dallas police spokesman Kevin Janse what the what. To which he responded:There was a suspicious objec

• In Northwest Dallas, Cat Killings Have DPD, Animal Services Investigators Troubled

  ​The furry fellow you see at right is Bill, my across-the-street neighbor's 12-year-old cat who, sometime between Sunday night and Monday morning, was chopped in half, his front quarters deposited in another neighbor's front lawn. In a next-door neighbor's front yard was the back half of a second cat, this one white; his owners have not been identified, perhaps because his front half has not yet been located. Neither has Bill's hindquarters. I mentioned this last night in the comments of this

• Dallas Police Department Will Take Over Investigation of Citywide Cat Killings

  ​Early this morning, Lt. Kimberly Stratman, who works in the Dallas Police Department's Family Violence Squad, called with the breaking news: The DPD has decided to take over the investigation of the cat killings in Northwest Dallas -- which, from tales shared and found, sounds far more widespread than the slayings of the two cats found in my next-door neighbors' yards Monday morning. Says Stratman -- and DPD spokesman Senior Corporal Kevin Janse -- Dominic Munoz, a Dallas Animal Services inve

• So, How's That Kiddie Curfew Workin' Out?

  ​Since it's been a couple of weeks since the Daytime Juvenile Curfew went into effect, we thought it might be a good time to find out how many kiddos the Dallas Police Department's done rounded up for skipping school. But as it happens, that's easier requested than done: We called DPD spokesman Kevin Janse for the stats this morning, but it took the better part of the day for him to return our call. He didn't forget about us; it just took him that long to figure out who was keeping track of th

• Operation Car Wash, Vacuuming's Extra

  View Larger MapJust saw this press release from the Dallas Police Department that contains relatively few details about something called Operation Car Wash, which DPD says has resulted in 27 arrests since warrants were first issued back on September 9. The release catalogs the drugs also seized, and DPD spokesman Kevin Janse tells Unfair Park that "more arrests and seizures are possible."Reason I called Janse is because the main address listed on the release sounded awfully familiar: 2702 Martin

• DPD's On the Lookout For One Tony Romo

  No, not that one. The one featured in this video the Dallas Police Department just posted, in which a Big C convenience store at 2240 Irving Boulevard is robbed at gunpoint by two men, one of whom is a 21-year-old named Anthony Romo. (His accomplice is, thus far, unidentified by DPD.)According to Kevin Janse, DPD spokesman, the men are believed to have been involved in "up to nine armed robberies," including ones at the La Azteca Meat Market (3046 Forest Lane) in September and the Supermercado M
