In response to the discussion regarding the activity across from Fiore's or anywhere for that matter - It is very important to notify the police of every single issue we see as citizens and conscientious neighbors. The police will only know the full extent of our frustrations if the actual incidents are being reported. I have found the ability to text in crime tips quite useful and often faster than phoning them in. Here is a piece about how to o it:

How to Submit a Tip
To text a tip to the Boston Police Department (BPD) Crime Stoppers Mobile Program, you must have text messaging enabled on your phone and subscribe to a participating cell phone carrier. To begin your tip session, text the word "TIP" to the number 27463, which spells the word "CRIME" on your phone's keypad.

# You may also always submit a tip by calling 1-800-494-TIPS.

While handset menus differ by carrier or model, here are some basic steps on how to compose a text message for "Text the word TIP to CRIME (27463)":

1. Find "Messaging" or "SMS" off your phone's main menu.
2. Create a new txt message or send txt.
3. When composing your message:
* Enter the number 27463 as the mobile # or in the "to" line
* Enter the word, TIP, as your message (TIP is not case-sensitive)
4. Hit "Send" to send the message.
5. You will receive a response from Crime Stoppers shortly, which will start the txt dialogue.

# When you complete your tip submission, for your safety, you should always delete all text messages from 27463 from your text message in box and out box.
