Happy Aloha Thursday. Remember, Aloha is in the heart, not the weather report.
In the past week, robberies continue to dominate the police blotters, confirming what we already knew: times are bad. Maybe bad times are making criminals angry, too, with all those stabbings.
Take a look at that hot prowl report on the Oct. 29 report. Don't know what a hot prowl is? It's usually when you realize that a burglar or rapist is creeping around your home. Hot prowlers thrive on thrills, so they can be very dangerous. Cops say if you feel a hot prowl is happening run outside to call for help. If you don't have an exit, hide. Hey, there's a good reason not to store junk under the bed.
It's a jungle out there. So when I say "stay safe" this weekend I really mean it.
