Neighbors Beware!!

Recently one of our neighbors was robbed during the daytime by some men who were delivering phone books. They were not caught. Then just last week I had an opportunity to possibly see a potential robbery. I had just come home at 4:45pm and noticed some men pulled up near the For Sale By Owner house on 78th Street. I knew my neighbor was not home and so when I got out of my car on the driveway I stood and watched them so they knew I was watching them. The man was delivering phone books. I had forgotten what had happened around the corner but it wasnt until I spoke with another neighbor closer to the burglarized home that she had spoken to AT&T and was told that they were NOT delivering phone books. When the neighbor looked at the date of the book it was December 2008. So BEWARE. The men were in a white pickup truck and the man leaving the phone books on the door step was white, reddish blonde beard not a tall man. When I continued to watch them they drove off and I didnt even think that they hadnt continued to deliver more phone books to me or anyone else.

Even though we think we notice what is going on- if it is a everyday occurance it may not be what is actually going on. SO remember to check things out even if you talk to them or just call the police. If it is a real deal then they wont mind the cops asking them a question or to identify what or who they are doing in the neighborhood. Watch for the Alert Neighborhood Meeting coming up. Police have been notified to watch for these men. Come to the meeting so we can continue to keep our neighborhood Alert!!
