Carter camping out on street corners

Published July 19, 2007 4:00am ET



Del. Jill Carter is taking her mayoral campaign, and her fight against crime, to some of Baltimore?s meanest streets. Starting tonight, Carter plans to spend the night on three separate corners in some of the city?s most crime-plagued neighborhoods to call attention to Charm City’s continual battle against crime.

“It is sending a message that we will not accept that our corners will be taken over,” she said. “It?s symbolic, yes, but it?s also about leading by example.”
