Crime Radar

A Southwest Dallas public-safety desk. We're building this from official police blotters, city alerts, and county records — and we won't publish incidents we can't source.

Nothing cited in the current feed

Crime Radar only shows incidents it can cite to police blotters, city notices, or publisher coverage — it never invents items.
