Area residents spent the evening at Brooklyn Park Middle School Tuesday night to participate in National Night Out as a way of sending a "message to criminals that the neighborhood is organized and fighting back," according to a press release from Anne Arundel County Police.

The free event, held from 6-9 p.m., featured children's activities, a fire equipment display and presentations by a police K-9 unite and bike patrol.
