Safety Of Downtown Madison Questioned

MADISON, Wis. — In the wake of Kelly Nolan’s disappearance and probable death, some are questioning the safety of downtown Madison, the last spot Nolan was seen alive.

Madison city officials told News 3 it’s too early to make assumptions about the safety of downtown Madison.

“There’s no way to deny something as scary and tragic as a woman being killed,” said common council president Mike Verveer. “Who knows where she was killed of course, but last seen in downtown Madison will lead to this perception problem that downtown Madison has, that we are an unsafe, scary place to be.”
