A resident says the blue light is out on a phone by American Tobacco Trail

That blue light atop the emergency phone near the American Tobacco Trail in Durham is out, at least if one resident’s been looking at it for ten years the way they say they have.

“It is a cruel dereliction of public service for the blue light to not work” the resident wrote, adding, “I’ve live here ten years and I’ve never seen it work.” The city has the report in hand.
