Meanwhile, in Russia ... #Quarantine

Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has demanded that China 'come clean' following reports that coronavirus originated in a Chinese laboratory, not as a bioweapon, but as part of bungling experiments to prove that Chinese scientists were superior to Americans in identifying emerging virus threats. It comes after President Donald Trump said on Wednesday the U.S. is trying to determine whether the coronavirus first crossed to humans accidentally during experiments with bats at the Wuhan Institute of Virology Lab. 'What we do know is we know that this virus originated in Wuhan, China,' Pompeo told Fox News on Wednesday evening. 'We know there is the Wuhan Institute of Virology just a handful of miles away from where the wet market was. There is still lots to learn. The United States government is working diligently to figure it out.'

The Los Angeles Police Department Wilshire Theft Detectives are reminding citizens about the presence of parcel thefts during the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic. On Saturday April 11, 2020, a delivery truck making deliveries in the Melrose district is followed by an unknown suspect who removes the parcels after the driver leaves. The vehicle is described as a late 1990’s Mercury Mountaineer with no or unknown plates and the suspect seen on the video is described as a male White or Hispanic 5’-10” in height 200 to 220 pounds in weight and between 30 to 40 years of age.

During subsequent interviews with delivery personnel it was discovered that due to the COVID-19 outbreak, drivers have been instructed not to touch door knobs, gate latches or any surface the could be frequently touched by another person. The packages are placed near the side walk making it easier for the suspects to approach and remove the package.

LAPD Detectives would like to remind employees of delivery companies to be aware of their surroundings. If one thinks they’re being followed, divert your route to confirm a vehicle is indeed following the delivery truck then notify the Police.

For community members, LAPD Detectives encourage alternate delivery locations that are more secure (such as picking up the package from the post office), delivering to your place of employment or installing a secure delivery box that can secure the delivered package.

Anyone with information is urged to call Wilshire Theft Detective Edward Griffin at 213-922-8251. During non-business hours, or on weekends, calls should be directed to 1-877-LAPD-24-7 (877-527-3247). Anyone wishing to remain anonymous should call the LA Regional Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (800-222-8477) or go directly to www.lacrimestoppers.org.

Police in New Jersey say they found 17 bodies piled up in a tiny morgue inside a nursing home after receiving an anonymous tip that a corpse was being kept in a shed outside the facility. The grim discovery was made Monday at the Andover Subacute and Rehabilitation Center I and II in Sussex County, according to the New York Times. Like other nursing homes in the state, the complex has been ravaged by the coronavirus, as 26 of the 68 people who have recently died there in its two buildings reportedly tested positive for the sickness. “They were just overwhelmed by the amount of people who were expiring,” Andover Police Chief Eric Danielson said.
