Back in our January board meeting, a resident from the East side reported that they had observed an unknown person going through mail boxes on their street. The resident did not call police and was unable to see a car tag for the individual.
This evening I received a phone call from one of our Crime Watch volunteers. Her neighbor reported to her that she also observed an unknown person going through street mail boxes this morning on the West side near SW 110th LN. She was able to get a tag & description of the car as well as description of the person going through the mailboxes. She also called police and obtained a police report. The person is described as a white heavy set male wearing a baseball cap low over their face. The car was described as a silver Toyota with dark tinted windows.
We can't stress enough how important it is to call the police whenever residents observe illegal activity such as this and then report it to their local Crime Watch volunteer so they can report it to us. We want to thank the homeowner who called police, and later us, for being vigilant. That is what Crime Watch is all about.
UPDATE: We received a call from the resident that reported the incident and they stated that they observed the vehicle parked in one of the townhouse's driveway last night. When they talked to the owner of that home, they stated that the individual was staying with them temporarily. They stated that the reason he looked through some of the mail boxes is because he got the addresses mixed up and was supposed to pick up a cell phone that was left within a mailbox. Resident called police to amend the police report and they will follow up with the incident.
