Examples of "Neighborhood Watch" type websites?

Can you point me to any examples of “neighborhood watch” type websites, such as the ever creepy ISawYourNanny.blogspot? Basically, any site where Joe Schmo can share what he saw someone do in a public space? It doesn't have to be about neighborhood crime, anything will do.

What about Overheard in New York? Not quite what people have seen, but what they heard instead.
