Allentown, Pa.
An outdoor advertising agency says it will be using a new electronic billboard in downtown Allentown to help the city fight crime. Billboard Connection says the 12-foot by 24-foot sign at 645 Hamilton Street will be able to display Amber Alerts and Crime Stoppers information. "We are proud to do our part to try to reduce crime in Allentown," says Doug Reed, senior media consultant for Billboard Connection. Mayor Ed Pawlowski says putting the faces of the criminals in bright lights sends a message that making arrests of wanted people is a top priority. "We welcome this new tool in Allentown's crime-fighting arsenal," says Pawlowski. "We are also moving closer to installing surveillance cameras in areas of the city."
