Tonight: Dundalk Celebrates National Night Out

Last year, more than 37 million people in more than 15,000 communities nationwide came together to strengthen the police-community partnership against crime, according to a press release from the Baltimore County Police Department.

Baltimore County police encourage residents and businesses to put a blue light bulb in their porches and outdoor lights and to turn them on from 6 to 11 p.m. on August 2 as one way to participate in National Night Out.

Here's a list of local Night Out events scheduled for this evening:
