As we continue to attempt to improve communications in the community regarding crime and the great work of the Protect Rio
Vista Patrol, we will summarize the past two months of security logs in each issue of RIO VISTA. In the past, only the most recent
log was included and often only a fraction of it due to space constraints. As always, the full logs can be accessed on our website
at https://www.riovistaonline.com/patrol-logs. We hope you will find this useful.
