Here we go with another crime in the current crime wave that has both law enforcement agencies sitting on their butts doing speed radar zones and setting up check points for seat belt violations. Both need to have 100% of their departments attention on getting tough with crime not driving infractions at this point.

I hate the SPD, but seriously there is nothing they could have done to stop or prevent this crime. There aren't a whole lot of houses around that office, and the people who live over there were probably asleep when this happened. When this stuff happens it is the business who is responsible. Did they have camera's or an alarm? Obviously not an alarm and if they had camera's there would be a video on here. They should suspect people who have been in there for appointments recently. Older teens, 20's probably a male.

Well we know there is no investigating done on a large scale with these robberies if there was more of these crooks would be behind bars.

I know this is hard for some people to accept but crime happens everywhere. In literally every city,county,state and country there is crime. Even if the US was a vast authoritarian state with a police officer on every street corner,crime it would still happen.The Salina PD does not have a magic wand that solve this problem that has plagued humanity for thousands of years.

Evidently Salina Senior has not lived here very long. We that have do not put up with this kind of behavior and always had good law enforcement both city and county wide. The blame has to be put directly on the two leading those departments.
