I live in a nice part of town. My neighborhood is comprised of $100-500k houses across the street from a nice country club, etc, etc.
A year or so ago, I found out a guy that lives down the street from me is a criminal/drugdealer; a cop told me when he came by to tell me my garage was open after dark.
I live across the street from a neighborhood park (1-2 acres) with a playground and a street light on each corner. A few months back, the light nearest my house was burned out and I noticed what appeared to be drug deals going on across the street from my house! A car would pull up, turn out its lights.... a guy would walk down from down the street somewhere, walk up to the window of the parked car for a few seconds, then off both parties went. I've called the cops a few times, but I try not to when I am noticed outside. The last thing I want is some bad guy getting upset with me for calling the cops and trying to seek revenge. I have a baby and a wife I don't want to get mixed up in all of it. The cops never catch the guys before they leave so nothing has ever come of my calls.
I notice the same thing a minute ago but with the streetlight on! Obviously I didn't call the cops because the driver saw me right out front. It's too dark and they are just far enough to where I can't get a license plate number.
Am I being a chicken about the whole deal? Do I need to go down to the police station and talk to a narc officer? What do I need to do to put an end to this potentially dangerous and criminal behavior going on so close to my house? If I do nothing, I can only assume it will get worse....... help me out.
