CRIME ALERT

I get crime alert-emails on my UIUC email. I am really amazed at the detail in which they describe the incidents and the amount of information they disclose. They even post videos on youtube of suspects. Here is one of the emails I recieved. There was a link for a video in this mail, but it is hidden on youtube, so I am not sure that it is meant for everyone to see. It is a video of 4 men walking across a gasstation.

Jeg får advarsler omkring forbrydelser på min UIUC mail. Jeg er virkelig forundret over detalje-graden de beskriver hændelserne med og mængden af information de frigiver. De lægger endda videoer ud på youtube af mistænkte personer. Her er en af de mails jeg har fået. Der var et link til en video med denne mail, men den er skjult på youtube, så jeg er ikke sikker på at det er meningen alle skal kunne se den. Det er en video af 4 mænd der går henover en tankstation.
