Marine Corps Dongdaemun Veterans Association Patrol Activity on Sindapcho School Route

Patrols at Sindapcho~Dapsimni Underpass on the 5th to operate until this winter vacation... Two teams of two members each (on foot and vehicle patrol) focused on crime-prone areas like the underpass

Dongdaemun-gu (Mayor Ilpyeong Lee) announced that the Marine Corps Dongdaemun Veterans Association (President Yongguk Jeon) conducted patrol activities along the school route from Sindap Elementary School to Dapsimni Underpass on the 5th, coinciding with students' dismissal time.

Recently, indiscriminate crimes have been occurring frequently, raising concerns among parents. In April last year, a man in his 50s assaulted two elementary school students returning home during dismissal time at Sindap Elementary School without any reason. In response, the Marine Corps Dongdaemun Veterans Association started voluntary patrol activities to ensure students' safe return home.

This activity is carried out by two teams of two members each (on-foot patrol and vehicle patrol), with patrol teams focusing on crime-prone areas such as underpasses. The Marine Corps Dongdaemun Veterans Association stated that the patrol activities, which began on the 4th, will continue until December 22, when Sindap Elementary School's winter vacation starts.

Ilpyeong Lee, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, expressed gratitude for the Marine Corps Dongdaemun Veterans Association's patrol activities, saying, "This effort will greatly help secure safe school routes for children and alleviate parents' anxiety." He added, "The district will also do its best to create a safe Dongdaemun-gu where residents can live with peace of mind."
