In an attempt to draw attention to drug problems in her neighborhood, one intrepid Belltown resident is filming crime on the street and posting it on a YouTube channel. Video titles include "crackheads playing football in my alley" and "crackhead makes pipe out of a can while wearing sombrero." On her YouTube page titled "Belltown Crime," she writes: "I feel after many many calls to police, with no response, I am shooting and posting videos to shed light on what really happens, and hopefully, the city and police will take notice and help clean up our block.
