Notable Quotable

I picked up this quote over the weekend:

"We need to get the word out here that Homewood is safe, that the East End is safe."

Who do you think said it?
1. The head of a Homewood-based social service agency.
2. The chief of police.
3. The pastor of a Homewood church.
4. A Homewood bartender.
