Columbus Day is a controversial holiday. Yes we know. How many people in North Hollywood actually get the day off? We here at NoHo Arts District. Com ask our selves why do we celebrate Columbus Day and not Amerigo Vespucci Day, the dude we were named after?
Take five minutes, North Hollywood, to protect your children.
It's the start of the school year and already a suspicious white van circled around a North Hollywood-area elementary school. The driver attempted to lure a young child in the vehicle, saying the child's mother sent him to pick him up from school.
The mother had previously spoken to her son about getting into a stranger's vehicle. If anyone other than mom was going to pick him up, that person would have to know the secret "code word."
No one ever thinks it could happen to them or their child. No doubt this five minute conversation prevented someone from being victimized today. If you have a young son or daughter, take five minutes out and make sure they have there own "code word" before ever going with a stranger. Its only a matter of time before the driver of the white van returns. Who knows what vehicle he will be driving next time.

Two Officers and a supervisor responded to a radio call to handle a "death investigation". It was an apparent natural death with no signs of any wrong doing but as officers, we still assist with the family notification and anything else that may be needed.
