Crime 'Hot Spot' in Tucker

A residential neighborhood is being targeted by criminals.

The intersection of Fellowship and Idlewood roads is seeing a rash of crimes lately, according to local resident Laurence Starr.

"There is a new hot spot in our subdivision," Starr said in an email sent to neighbors. He then listed a number of reported crimes that have taken place in the area since July, including cases of aggravated assault with a knife, simple battery, damage to property, robbery, and larceny.

"There were three attacks on people at this intersection all between 6:30 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.," Starr said, adding that he and his wife are spending more time on their carport around those hours to watch for suspicious people and activity.
