It appears that our neighborhood is being targeted by a group of organized thieves. Adults have teenage kids breaking into homes stealing TV, VCR?’s Guns, and jewelry. In and out very quickly. I also do not believe the Sheriff?’s Department is able to do much either. Even if they bust the ring, the leaders are getting away and the kids being juveniles are not prosecuted to the extent that adults would be. Halloween was a good time to case the neighborhood, identifying who is and who is not home.
We are our own best defense against this home intrusion. Jot down a strange car in the street or neighbors drive and the time noticed. Especially if they are carrying things out of the house. A few days later when you hear of what went on, you may still be able to help. Keep descriptions accurate and with as much detail as you can muster. Should the Sheriff catch a few of these creeps, they will move elsewhere. They have no fear of prosecution either. Crime watch cannot be everywhere. They are a big help and are limited by the number of people and what they can do. Thanks for your consideration.
