By Police Chief Steve Sutton
During the month of January, we have had 12 residential burglaries, three of which occurred in the last week of the month on Shore Drive. This is very concerning! Two of the three cases on Shore Drive occurred during the middle of the day. The third case was in the early evening when the residents left for a couple of hours. All of them were forced entry at the rear of the house.
I am asking that everyone remains vigilant, call 911 if you see anything out of the ordinary, and follow some of the simple tips outlined in the Crime Prevention Guide.
The Police Department will be conducting targeted patrols randomly throughout the daytime and evening hours. We do have some evidence being evaluated, however at this time do not have any solid leads as to the suspects in these cases.
The police department is also endorsing “Trackmole”. This is a tool that will assist you in inventorying and tracking all of your valuables. It also helps police when we recover stolen items.
Again, please call 911 if you see anything out of the ordinary – we will respond.
