STREET LIGHT PROBLEM IN BOSTON

Dear Sir, there has been a recurring street light problem in Boston, as should be public knowledge by now which the government has failed to fix despite several appeals.

Majority of street lights in the Boston area don't function at night which makes the streets all the more dangerous as there has been an increase in muggings and petty theft along the darkened corners.

Just last week, my friend was mugged on his way home from music practise and the police are yet to make any arrests, regarding this case.

I appeal to you as the mouthpiece of this city to bring to light what's happening in Boston with the street lights so that effective changes can be made.

Yours faithfully,

Alan Pardew.

type of error:

the error in the sentence is a "dangling modifier". a dangling modifier is a phrase, word or clause that "dangles" because there is not target to modify. in this case, "after mopping the floor" is the dangling modifier since it has no word to modify. the noun "house" cannot mop the floor; therefore there is a mistake in the writing of the sentence.
