Shenanigans: SpotCrimeNYC App

From the Spotcrime guys, this mobile police blotter first geo-locates you, then scours cop reports, blogs, and newspapers for the 20 most recent crimes nearby, which range from the poorly executed ("a van slammed into a police cruiser") to the masterful ("Morley ran out on his tab, leaving his keys and wallet behind. He returned a short time later and taunted the bartender" -- obviously, they should call this SpotHero).
