While most of us wake up for our regular 9 to 5 jobs and head into the office for a day in front of a computer or otherwise, our men and women in blue are leading a dangerous every day. The average car stop could lead to a deathly ending. Every moment, every decision is a risky one that they're on the edge with anticipation for.

I wasn't backstage or out by the GNA booth, I wasn't in a dressing room or up close to the stage taking pictures. I instead was out of breath and sweating my butt off!

Yesterday, I told you which of our beautiful cities/towns were considered the safest in the state. Today, lets get to the highest crime rate! Okay, I shouldn't sound so excited about that.
