This alley is notorious for drug dealers, gang bangers, and hookers--not 
to mention graffiti that the businesses try to keep up with, but can't 
always. I'll alert the guys at Aftercare, Inc. They can move them out. 
Two others in Central are 35th between 4th and 5th and 33rd between 4th 
and 5th. This is all Rolling Thirties Bloods territory, so they are the 
offenders most likely.

I'll point this one out to the neighbors. I know a bunch of folks around 
there. It doesn't surprise me, though, since Officer Danny Wells has 
been pushing the dealers off 27th and Bloomington and all along 
Bloomington, actually.

You're right, though, around here shoes on the wires are a signal about 
where to look for drugs. The other signs, of course, are lurkers, high 
traffic, late night traffic. At 31st and both 4th and 5th, the pavement 
princesses are always for sale. The cops regularly round them up, but 
they're back the next day. Some of them have been out there for as long 
as 20 years.
