SANTA ANA - Nailea Anguiano arrived at the Mexican Consulate early Wednesday expecting long lines, not a pitch from Santa Ana police.
The 30-year-old was pleased. Not only did she turn in some necessary paperwork for a U.S. immigration appointment next week, but she also discovered that there's a number she can call to report the graffiti she hates spotting on her morning commute through the city.
"This is great. I didn't know who to call," she said. "Now I know."
Anguiano was one of more than 50 people who showed up at the consulate office on various errands and found themselves a captive audience for Santa Ana police officials' first presentation aimed at Mexican nationals who may not be familiar with U.S. and local laws.
The morning presentations, scheduled to take place almost every Wednesday, tackle safety issues -- from the importance of crime reporting to risks associated with driving without a license, said Santa Ana police Deputy Chief Carlos Rojas.
