Plattsburgh City Police have created an “Internet Exchange Safe Zone” for people exchanging goods purchased via social media or websites.
The Plattsburgh Police Department has designated a portion of its parking lot as a secure location for people to exchange web-based purchases.

Acting Police Chief Mike Branch noted that small items are often sold at a buyer’s home and  “…inviting unknown persons into your home or dealing with a group of people alone could result in unintended or harmful consequences.”  

The lot is monitored 24 hours a day.
