Comments on: Police Hunt Rapist Downtown http://www.downtownaustincrimeprevention.org/police-hunt-rapist-downtown.htm Connecting residents, businesses, police and Austin downtown stakeholders Sat, 13 Feb 2010 03:09:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: MW http://www.downtownaustincrimeprevention.org/police-hunt-rapist-downtown.htm/comment-page-1#comment-265 MW Wed, 05 Aug 2009 17:45:19 +0000 http://www.downtownaustincrimeprevention.org/?p=214#comment-265 Because of this story, several of us downtown residents went shopping for MACE this morning and have vowed to *never go running unarmed* in the early morning hours. There is often very suspicious activity in the pre-dawn hours *every day of the week* in the 5th street, Convention Center, Railyard area. This story has driven home for us just how dangerous these streets have become. The lady who 'maced' this guy is a hero. And at least the woman at the Railyard can know that through her tragedy, we are starting to learn the hard lessons here in downtown.
