Citrus Heights Police Cracking Down On Public Sex

  Citrus Heights Police are cracking down on illegal sexual activities in public places, and have already arrested five people at Tempo Park.

"Cruisers," a slang term for people looking for sex, have been a growing problem at Tempo Park, according to police. A local resident, Tricia Grant, walks her dogs in local parks several times a week, and says that the problems are centered in the restrooms, just yards away from the playground..

"I'll pick the parts I go to because certain parts of the day are… not a good time," says Grant.

It's not just the restrooms. Citrus Heights Lieutenant Jeff MacKanin says that people will use the bushes to perform sexual acts, raising concerns not only because families use the park, but also for the spread of disease.

"We can teach citizens to be our eyes for us," says Lt. MacKanin. "We can teach them to log information, [especially] citizens who work well with police."

Tricia Grant hopes a neighborhood watch will be enough to keep cruisers away.
