PD is active, lot of out-of-towners causing problems.

The Patterson (N.J.) Police Department is taking out ads in The Record and The Herald News listing the names, partial address, and birth dates of people arrested for buying drugs or soliciting prostitutes in the city, the New York Times reported May 8.

The series of ads, which cost $2,500, included the names of 600 arrestees; the department plans to run the ads quarterly in the regional newspapers. "Be advised that if you attempt to purchase drugs or sex in the City of Paterson you will be arrested, jailed, and have your vehicle impounded," the ads warn. "Your name will then appear in a future newspaper ad like those listed below."

Patterson officials said that half or more of the 2,233 people arrested on drug or solicitation charges so far this year came from out of town.
