The city of Morgantown will be devoting four - FOUR - police officers on bicycles to patrol a - street? avenue? boulevard? - no, a trail. Are they looking for rapists, muggers, or murderers? No, they are looking for helmets - specifically, those goofy tapered bicycle helmets. In the over-the-top spirit of SAAAFETY everywhere, adults moving 5 mph and already operating under the premise of assumed risk will be warned and possibly cited by police if the adults lack a helmet.
Violence on High Street? Fires burning throughout the student housing areas? I'm Shmacked? We'll jawbone those issues to death but preventing them is apparently beyond the reach of the local constabulary. Bike helmets in broad daylight? That's more their speed.
