Nixle to provide crime alerts

A new service called Nixle (http://www.nixle.com) is available which sends police alerts to your email or phone from the St. Paul Police Department. You can sign up for your home address (or as many locations as you want - home, office, daycare....).  When something rises to the level that the police deem important, they will send out an alert. You can also go to the Nixle website and see all the alerts for St. Paul or the Metro Area.  (You have to click on St. Paul on the home page to just see St. Paul.) Register at www.Nixle.com.
