Grapevine news

Thank you for the update. When I called the non-emergency dispatch line, the woman told me it was a robbery, but wouldn't give out any additional information. A neighbor, who was awake during all of the commotion, thought he heard the police say that a guy they had picked up had escaped out of the squad car. I contacted Detective Dixon for an update, but he hasn't gotten back with me. Well, thank you for the clarification!

Bikes & lawnmowers

I just want to share with everyone that in the summertime, bikes and lawnmowers are the most common things stolen. That happened to us a couple of years ago. My bike, lawnmower, and a few other gardening items (leaf blower) were stolen. The person had cut my lock on my shed. Needless to say, my shed is now like Fort Knox. Make certain your shed and/or garage is difficult to break into!
