Fredonia marshal urges residents to be the village's "eyes and ears" and report concerns

Marshal Eric Leet appealed to Fredonia residents to act as the village's "eyes and ears," saying the community's close ties help law enforcement. "As far as I'm concerned, there is no call that is too small," he said, adding, "I would much rather come out and check something out and find that the suspicions did not lead to anything."

Leet framed this as a practical approach for a part-time agency that cannot be on-call around the clock: timely community reports allow the marshal's office or the sheriff to respond before problems escalate. He asked continued community support and vigilance as part of routine public safety.
