Tyrone Posts Crime Stats

Community Message has been issued by the Tyrone Police Department.
Friday July 10, 2009 12:04 PM EDT

The June 2009/2nd Quarter crime statistics have been posted on our site for public review.

Citizens,

We've just added our statistics summaries for June 2009 and 2nd Quarter 2009 on our website at http://www.tyrone.org/crimestats for your review. We experienced a slight decrease in overall crime in June 2009 and thefts continue to be our most prevalent crime type, so please continue to make sure that your valuables are secure and remember to lock your vehicles at night as we continue to see entering auto cases where the vehicles were unlocked.

I also want to remind our readers to call 911 or 770-461-HELP (4357) immediately if you witness suspicious persons, vehicles, or activity in your neighborhood. Our officers apprehended a burglary suspect this week thanks to a citizen calling in a suspicious vehicle in their area. The suspect was charged with four felony counts including burglary, possession of controlled substances, and possession of burglary tools. The suspect also had in his possession a handwritten list of addresses of homes under construction from all over the Atlanta Metro Area, including the address of the home he had just removed copper wiring and pipes from here in Tyrone. The Tyrone address was the only one that had been crossed off the list, but our officers contacted the affected agencies just in case and none reported having any burglaries at those locations. Needless to say, our citizen thwarted several crimes in the Metro Area with one phone call!

Our officers are here to respond to your requests for service, no matter how trivial they may seem to you so please do not hesitate to call us. Better safe than sorry!

If you have any questions about our crime reports, or about crime in Tyrone, please send me an email or give me a call and I will be happy to help.

Have a safe weekend.

The Bible Gets a New Modern Twist: First of Three in Series to Simplify Bible Stories

/PRNewswire/ -- Using modern language and phraseology, author Bill Stahl retells the ancient stories of the Bible in his own words in "The Bible's Story of Salvation" (published by iUniverse). He incorporates the contributions of Bible scholars, historic, archaeological, and pertinent scientific data to "make the stories more understandable and to make them come alive, particularly the people of the stories," says Stahl. "They were real people with real lives, having many of the same goals and ambitions, concerns and fears we have today."

"The Bible's Story of Salvation" is the first of a three-volume series from Bill Stahl. It covers the Bible from Genesis through Second Chronicles. For some 21st century readers, it's hard to understand the Bible because the ancient writers were writing for the people of their own time. Many are unfamiliar with the places they speak of and the stories are not always in chronological order. There are numerous inconsistencies and even apparent contradictions in the Bible. Some of what the Bible authors state doesn't square up with historical or archeological records. Usually, to understand the Bible, further study is essential. Bill Stahl has done this further study and researched the Bible scholars' contributions, historical and archeological records, and scientific data to simplify the complexities of the Bible and help modern readers understand its essential message.

"The Bible is the story of the birth and growth of the Hebrew religion (Old Testament) followed by the story of the birth and early development of the Christian religion (New Testament). Looking at it another way, the Bible is the account of the unfolding and execution of God's plan for the salvation of the human race."
