New Crime Blog, Charlotte mag on the radio

We’ve gone live with our latest blog, Charlotte’s Crime Blog. In the new June issue, we’ve launched a four-part series called Charlotte’s Crime Problem. Authored principally by Melissa Hankins, the series will look at four major aspects of crime in Charlotte. We’ll use the blog to provide between-issue updates and interesting stats and facts, link to other interesting sites (here’s one: CrimeInCharlotte), and, most importantly, tell your stories. We want to hear what you think about crime in Charlotte.

Also, Melissa will be on WBT’s The Jeff Katz show tomorrow (Friday) at 4 p.m. to talk about the first article and the series (that should be interesting). If you miss it live, the show has podcasts.

If the first Crime Blog post isn’t up yet, check back a little later. I believe Melissa is working on it as I type this.
