Default Knorr And Glenloch

There is a crack dealer selling rock from the back of a house located on the north side of Knorr, just east of Glenloch. He meets his customers near the alley just north of Knorr and on the east side of Glenloch and if he doesn't meet them, they go up the alley to the rear of his house. I believe it is a white male. The neighbors should be aware of this and see if they can get this problem fixed. Good luck.

Are you a neighbor? If not, how did you discover that this activity is going on? Why don't you report it to the police in addition to posting it here?

Older guy compared to your typical street hustler? If it's who I think it might be he was recently arrested in the late winter/early spring and the police know exactly who he is. I'm not sure he was selling crack but he was selling weed, "wet" and possibly pills. I'll try to get the name and description of who I'm thinking of to see if it's the same guy.

Not from the neighborhood. I know people from the area and I did report it.

Couldn't make out the age, but he wasn't a very big guy.

Unfortunately because a lot of times not much is done or investigated. I went through this a couple times several years ago with a guy(who stuck out like a sore thumb just in his description alone) that was blatanly dealing from the bar on the S/W corner of Torresdale and Wellington. The most it led to was a call from narcotics officers asking ME if I could get pics/vid etc. so I went as far as volunteering an apt where they could witness it for themselves and never heard back from them.

That is an outrage! I would call the Community Relations Officer at the 15th about this.

Shooting the dealer in a dark alley would get an investigation.

This was a good 4 years ago, as far as shooting him you'd need some heavy duty artillery, thats why I said he stuck out like a sore thumb. He had to be at least 6'6"(maybe closer to 7') and 350lbs. They might have caught onto him somewhat, since I did notice he used a "middleman" every now and then that would run his wares from the bar to a little further down the block to a customer. I've seen the guy as recently as a couple months ago so if he did get caught there wasn't much, if any punishment.
