Digital cable customers can use Comcast's On Demand service to tune in to cold crime cases.
"Police Blotter on Demand" features photos and short descriptions of 10 different Twin Cities cold cases.
These segments can be found under the "Get Local" tab on the On Demand main menu. There's no extra charge.
