Right in your face - Crime in Lake Worth

Comment Up

At 2:20 today, one of our area homeless left Publix at 214 N. Dixie with a cart load of items.  He was stopped by the security guard, the sheriff was called and he got a warning.  But guess what--he was NOT charged for the crime of shoplifting but rather given a citation for trespassing.  If he comes on the property again, for any reason, he will be arrested.

As he was walking down the street, he threw the citation on the ground.  It was picked up by an interested bystander who informed the homeless gentleman that he had dropped it.  He said that he didn't need it; he would be back tomorrow to do the same thing.

So he is also a litterbug. What can be done about all this crime that is getting worse in our city? Where are the cops?
