“What does it need?” Beth Hawks, in tangled, asked the radio. “It doesn't get any better. Schiraldi has to go.”

Another resident replied to the online post letter: “I feel that this needs national reporting.”

Kyle McDermott, a resident of Federal Hill, agreed.

“I think the only way to change things is when it becomes a national topic and the national media bring it to TV,” said McDermott.

In addition to the recent smashing of windshields and crimes against two companies in Federal Hill, McDermott announced that young people recently addressed three of his neighbors.

“A woman who walks her dog in the park behind me,” said McDermott. “She was hit by five young people with a stone on her neck. Then they started to found another woman with her dogs. They said they killed their dogs. Then they went to Rutschfeld, where they dropped a bucket with dirty water on a resident.”

McDermott said he spoke to all three women and said that they all felt frustrated, angry, anxious, fearful and shaken.

FOX45 News turned to BPD to determine whether arrests were made in one of these incidents. A spokesman wrote: “The examination has not yet been completed and no arrests were made.”

“The police do everything they can,” said McDermott, adding that he had contacted the mayor and the members of the city council.

“I spoke to every leader chosen,” said McDermott. “The answer I get again and again is clear.
