Fortuna, tangled up in blue.

This website is a vast and mysterious place, full of all sorts of nooks and crannies that most of you never visit. Most of you probably don’t even know they exist. Take the court calendar, for example. Or the weekly felony warrant list. Etc.

Though you don’t know or care about these features, you might be surprised to learn that each of them has their own set of daily devotees. Therefore, when Fortuna switched up its public-facing crime maps to a new system last month, breaking the Fortuna section of our Patrolled feature in the meanwhile, we started getting emails. And more emails. And yet more.

These people were understanding but firm. Bring it back!

So many people wrote that I find it worthwhile to make this announcement to the community at large, rather than email each of them individually. Fortuna Patrolled is once again fully operational! Here is yesterday’s report. Here is today’s, already filling up in something close to real time.

While we were fixing that, we realized that it would be easy to add Cal Poly Humboldt’s University Police Department logs, too. So we went ahead and did that. Here’s yesterday’s UPD patrol logs. Learn which restrooms were found to contain graffiti!

Thanks to everyone who wrote in, spurring us on to get this done. And thanks to you, too, for your patronage.

Next we’ll see if we can fix the Hazmat bot.
