Bowie, however, is outside gangbanger country
I manage a shopping center down the road a piece from Bowie. We had a horrible time with break-ins. The shopping center is doing poorly at any rate, so our tenants were furious with this series of events. In desperation we hired PG county off-duty cops to patrol at nights. Even with this we were STILL robbed one night. The cop was evidently sleeping on the job. So we had to pay thousands of dollars to install a "swipe" system to make sure the cops were doing their job.
Then one day we read the local paper and discover the perp of the robberies in our shopping center had been arrested. And, get this, the perp was an EMPLOYEE of one of our most complaining tenants.
Then I found out later this tenant is a Muslim but that's a whole nother story.
