SJP Surrogate Needs Help -- Who You Gonna Call?

Sarah Jessica Parker's surrogate mama needs security, because paparazzi are overrunning the little town where she lives.

So the PD has been asked to help. Who, you ask, will take charge of the go team? The police chief who is under investigation for allegedly breaking into her home and trying to sell info about her and Sarah to a tabloid.

We spoke with officials in Martins Ferry, Ohio, who told us Police Chief Barry Carpenter will manage the team assigned to protect the surrogate.

The mayor told us that he has his concerns but has faith in the police department ... isn't that called blind faith?
