Oregon residents helping to solve crime through social media
Since last June when the Oregon police department joined social media networks to connect to the community, city residents have helped the police solve eight criminal cases.
Most recently, on Monday, Detective Sgt. Tim Zale posted online surveillance video and photos of a couple who stole purses from employees at Mercy St. Charles Hospital and Starr Elementary School.
The next day, police had the couple in custody thanks to their Facebook friends.
