Downtown Patrols Proposed
SHOULD THERE BE MORE PATROLS IN DOWNTOWN LA CROSSE AT NIGHT? A GROUP OF CRIMINAL JUSTICE STUDENTS AT WESTERN TECHNICAL COLLEGE PROPOSES THAT IDEA AS ONE WAY TO PREVENT DRUNKEN DROWNINGS.
STUDENT JESSICA JORSTAD MADE THAT SUGGESTION DURING A CEREMONY AT RIVERSIDE PARK ON SUNDAY, TO REMEMBER YOUNG MEN WHO HAVE DROWNED IN THE MISSISSIPPI. THE W-T-C STUDENTS ALSO ARE LOOKING FOR A STOREFRONT WHICH COULD BE USED AS A YEAR-ROUND CENTER FOR PEOPLE WHO GET INTO TROUBLE DOWNTOWN.
