Greetings,
Welcome to the January 2010 issue of the Westover
Division Response Area 3 monthly community letter.
In this issue you will find crime reviews for the month
of December 2009 as well as crime results for the 4th
quarter of 2009. There is also burglary information all
home owners should review.
Please share this document with other members in
your community. Public awareness of crime and
crime patterns is vital to assist in developing lines of
communication between citizens and police, as well
as forming working relationships between citizens
and police. If you or someone you know would like to
be added to the distribution list for this document
please contact me at jhulsey@cmpd.org, or the
Westover Division office at 704-432-2442. This
newsletter is available in Spanish.
I recently completed my first full year as the Response Area Commander for Westover Division Response Area 3.
I am pleased to report we achieved significant gains in crime reduction for the year. More importantly, bonds
have been established with many community members and businesses throughout the year. There has been
great communication between citizens and police which has resulted in cases being solved that otherwise would
not have. I am grateful to all of you who have reached out to us, the police, to express concerns, pass along
information, or participate in community meetings or events.
I look forward to getting to know more of you as we partner together to fight crime in our neighborhoods.
Best regards,
Sergeant Jacquelyn Hulsey

The Focus Crimes for the 4th quarter of 2009
for Response Area 3 were Residential
Burglary, Larceny from Auto, and Robbery.
Focus Crimes are those which we dedicate
additional resources towards to address. Focus
Crimes are selected based on the impact they
have on the community as well as the
frequency with which they are occurring.
Focus Crimes are established on a quarterly
basis.
For the 4th Quarter of 2009 Residential
Burglary was down -23%, Larceny from Auto
was down -11%, and Robbery was down
-41%. These statistics are in comparison to the
4th quarter of 2008. Overall violent crime and
property crime were down -23% for the 4th
quarter of 2009 compared to the 4th quarter of
2008.
On Dec 24, 2009, around 5:30 PM a male and female with a prior relationship had an
altercation. The female stated the male intentionally broke her car windshield. The
male party stated the female tried to hit him with the car.
On Dec 29, 2009, around 11:30 PM a victim reported that a vehicle with three males
pulled up near him and pointed a gun at him in the 5200 block of South Blvd. There
were no injuries.
On Dec 6, 2009, around 12:30 AM an intoxicated patron at Angry Ale’s Pub was angry
when the staff asked him to leave so he tried to set a fire in the restroom of the
business. There were no injuries.
Larceny from Auto Locations – December 2009
Four of the above incidents were situations where either the license plate was stolen off the
rear of the vehicle or gas was siphoned from a vehicle (commercial truck). Although there was
no actual break-in into the vehicle our data system classifies these incidents as Larcenies from
Auto. Of the incidents in which the vehicle was broken into, methods of entry are typically
windows being smashed, door locks being tampered with, or the car was left unlocked. Items
frequently stolen are visible GPS units or MP3 players and sometimes aftermarket stereos.
Occasionally a desperate thief will break in for less valuable items such as loose change.
Please don’t leave anything of value visible in your vehicle.
Officers arrested two individuals as they were in the process of breaking in to a car at 6512
Wisteria Dr (listed above). Officers arrived on scene, the suspects ran from the scene and
officers caught the suspects during a foot pursuit.

Residential Burglary Locations – December 2009
On November 10, 2009, Officers responded to a call of a suspect stealing items from a storage
shed on Murrayhill Rd. north of Woodlawn Rd. Officers located and arrested the suspect at a
pawn shop minutes after the call and recovered the stolen items. Prior to this arrest numerous
storage sheds had been broken into in various neighborhoods along the South Blvd corridor.
The number of reported storage shed incidents has dropped dramatically since this arrest.
The suspect in this arrest also lives on Murrayhill Rd. north of Woodlawn Rd.
Of the 9 incidents listed above, 8 of them occurred during the daytime hours when residents
are typically at work. 8 of them also occurred at single family homes and 1 occurred at an
apartment. The method of entry in 4 of the incidents was by kicking in a door to the home.
This is a common and surprisingly easy practice. It also seems to be a preferred method of
entry for teenagers. It requires no tools and no special skills. There are some measures you
can take to better secure your doors and minimize your risk. There are products available on
the market to strengthen the door jamb and prevent it from splintering when a door is kicked
and there are products that can be placed against the door to strengthen it. Below are some
links to videos on “youtube”. One video is a young male kicking in a door which demonstrates
just how easy it is, and the other video demonstrates one of the door jamb security devices.

Crime Prevention Tips:
Larcenies from Auto - A larceny from auto is essentially when a suspect enters a vehicle with
the intent to steal an item from within the vehicle, as opposed to stealing the vehicle itself.
Although these larcenies from auto occur at any time and at any location, the majority of them
are occurring in medium to large sized parking lots at business locations or apartment
buildings. Citizens are often leave items in plain view in their vehicles which are being stolen.
The vehicles are being entered either through an unlocked door, or by force, such as breaking
a window or prying the door open. Items commonly stolen are GPS units, MP3 music players,
cellular phones, briefcases/handbags, sunglasses, and even loose change lying in cup holders
or ash trays. To minimize the risk of becoming a victim, please remove all visible evidence of
these items from your vehicle. This would include items such as power cords or mounting
devices as these items may lead a suspect to believe the electronic device is stored
somewhere else in the vehicle.
Residential Burglaries – Burglary is a city wide concern for police. An intrusion into a home
leaves the victims feeling violated and uncertain as to their safety. The burglaries in Response
Area 3 tend to occur during daylight hours when no one is in the residence. As a general rule,
a suspect breaking into a home is after property and does not want to encounter a resident.
This is why these incidents commonly occur while individuals are at work. This does not mean
you should not safeguard yourself from an intrusion during the evening. Please be sure to
keep your doors and windows secure, and employ the use of lighting, hedge trimming, and
other safety tips to keep your home safe and unappealing for would be burglars. If you would
like an officer to evaluate your home for safety and security feel free to contact the Community
Coordinator Officers at the Westover Division, 704-432-2442.
Please be alert and aware of activity in your neighborhood. Encourage your neighbors who
are home during the day to take an active role in watching the neighborhood as well. If you
see suspicious activity in your neighborhood report it to police by calling 911. Residents are
sometimes reluctant to call police and report a suspicious person because they fear they may
be wrong. We (the police) would rather respond and not be needed versus not being called
and have a break-in.
Another crime tactic employed by burglars is to knock or ring a doorbell to see if a resident is
home before breaking in. This is rare, but does occasionally occur. If you are home and
receive an unexpected knock at the door make your presence known by announcing a
statement through the shut and locked door. A simple statement such as “I’m busy!” will alert
a thief to your presence and discourage an unwanted encounter with you.
Auto Thefts – Vehicles are often stolen during evening and late night hours from apartment
complexes, business locations, or other parking lots. Vehicle theft from a private residence in
Response Area 3 is rare, but does occasionally occur. To minimize your chances of becoming
a victim of Auto Theft remember to park in well lit areas, close to buildings or other people.
Keep your car doors and windows secured, and consider extra security measures such as
audible alarms or “The Club”. Do not leave a car running or with the keys inside while
unattended. This is an invitation for an opportunistic thief. This is also a violation of City
CMPD Westover Division: Response Area 3 Newsletter January 2010
Ordinance and officers are actively enforcing the ordinance by issuing citations. Citizens often
ask “What if I have a vehicle with the remote start feature?” Our response is that the potential
thief may not realize the engine will shut off when the vehicle is entered. The thief may still
break a window to access the car, and ultimately a crime is still committed.
Other Crime Tips:
Please record the serial numbers of your valuable items in a secure place. Remember, if you
save the serial numbers only on your computer and your computer is stolen you won’t be able
to provide the information to police. Serial numbers are crucial to police to be able to recover
property and develop suspects in cases. Photograph jewelry and other valuables that don’t
have a serial number.
Engraving is another excellent way to identify your property and deter thieves. If you are going
to engrave your property, engrave your driver’s license or state identification number on the
item. Do not engrave your social security number for security reasons. We have engravers at
the Westover Division office we will gladly loan you.
When school resumes in August watch for and report truant juveniles to police. Juveniles
absent from school and wandering neighborhoods and shopping centers will likely create
mischief or commit crimes. Westover Division has a truancy officer, Officer Steve Arnold, who
is dedicated to tracking juvenile offenders, monitoring school attendance, and returning truant
youths to school. A call to 911 to report truancy will assist him in doing his job.
If you see suspicious activities please don’t disregard them. Trust your instincts and call 911.
If you see someone lurking around your neighbor’s home call 911 first and then call the
neighbor. While waiting for police be the best witness you can be. Don’t approach the
potential offender. Just look for as many identifying features about the person or vehicle as
you can safely observe.

Officers Chris Adkins and Chris Urrutia
Aggressively Addressing Crime in Westover
Officers Chris Adkins (left) and Chris Urrutia (right) are members of the Westover Division
Response Area 3 Focus Mission Team. Officers Adkins and Urrutia have been partners in
their efforts to address crime for approximately 7 months. In this time the two officers have
formed a working relationship that has developed them into an aggressive crime fighting and
problem solving duo that has impacted the community greatly. Officers Adkins and Urrutia
have established intelligence gathering sources within the community that have led them to
numerous arrests for drugs and contraband. When not utilizing their information sources to
develop leads on suspects they are actively patrolling the response area. Both officers have
been highly successful in identifying indicators of drug activity and other illegal activity.
Officers Adkins and Urrutia have eradicated a high quantity of drugs from the streets in recent
weeks through their contacts with suspicious persons and vehicles. The two officers have
made numerous arrests for possession of marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, and
methamphetamine. Some of these arrests contained drug amounts in extremely high
quantities and led to charges of “possession with intent to sell and deliver”. In addition to the
drug arrests, the officers’ proactive and observant patrols have netted them arrest for larceny
and burglary. Officers Adkins and Urrutia are assets to the Westover Division and the
community they serve.
