ReplyActually, I don't find Norwalk police overwhelmed at all. Monday's accident is being investigated by the Patrol Division. Shootings and gang activity are investigated by detectives and by members of Special Services.
I've covered the department for more than 20 years (I moved to Norwalk in 1976) and don't see the city's crime rate having reached a critical level. It's been said a police department can't post a cop at every corner, but Norwalk police "street teams" give it a good try.
I read the department's activity log every day (it's available for the public to read daily in the lobby, as is the log of everyone arrested), and most days crimes involve shoplifting, car break-ins, residential burglaries, and domestic confrontations.
While not downplaying the seriousness of these crimes, they don't indicate the city is in a state of anarchy.
I invite you and anyone to contact me with comments about crime in Norwalk. H.F.C. -

The cases for both men are on the pre-trial docket. Paakki is next scheduled to appear in court Oct. 26. Bernat is next scheduled to appear in court Oct. 20. Both were released after posting bonds.
