Keystone Cops: Why Not Easy Buttons?

Keystone Cops is a look at police, crime and public safety news.

• Twenty Montco schools will respond to the Amish school shooting and the Springfield suicide by getting panic buttons. Yes! Panic buttons! They'll be able to communicate with police and such, too, so I suppose it's all good. [Doylestown Intelligencer]

• A former Camden County volunteer fire chief has been convicted of arson. It's always the one you most suspect. [KYW 1060]

• A Widener College student has been arrested for allegedly beating a dog to death in the woods. The dead dog's name is not known, but he's sure to get just as many letters as Barbaro did. What? A dead dog can read just as well as a live horse! [NBC 10]

• A Bensalem 14-year-old who allegedly wrote bomb threats on the walls of Bensalem High has been arrested and charged with threatening to use a weapon of mass destruction. This is coincidentally the same charge used to invade Iraq. Who knew? [AP/Philly.com]

• And they appeared to have caught him now? I think? But last week Fox News reported police in England were contacting Atlantic City cops to see if there were any links between the two cases. Uh, yeah. [Fox News via Philly Confidential]
