[Highland Park] Burglary Update and Bathroom Renovation
by Kelly Weinheimer 03 Oct '07

03 Oct '07

Hi Neighbors! Many of you have inquired about the status of our burglary case, so I thought it would be best to just send an update to everyone. Last week, the police arrested the man who allegedly burglarized our home and others in Highland Park. I met with a detective this morning who was able to return a few of the items taken. Last week I got most of my jewelry back. We have been *very* lucky! I can't thank the Pittsburgh police enough. They have been nothing but kind and helpful throughout this ordeal. I also wanted to thank you for your bathroom renovation recommendations. I've been in touch with two contractors and hope to have some estimates next week. Cheers, Kelly Weinheimer Callowhill Street

[Highland Park] Recent Break-ins/Burglaries
by Brackney, Rashall 02 Oct '07

02 Oct '07

Hello everyone. I just wanted to update everyone on the recent rash of burglaries that occurred in Highland Park, particularly around Callowhill. Thanks to the cooperation of the residents, great descriptions and willingness to trust their instincts, we arrested a person by the name of Francis (Frank) Laffey. Mr. Laffey is from Morningside and is being charged with a minimum of nine burglaries. Currently, he is incarcerated. We will continue our investigation to determine if he is responsible for any additional burglaries. To that end, I have offered to post pictures of any unidentified property our detectives may have in their possession. The detectives will respond back to me in a few days. They were absolutely impressed that Highland Park had an electronic networking system. I few of you have asked for TIPS to help reduce the chances of being a victim. Here are a few that I remind myself of on a daily basis. * Never leave the garage door up/open, even for a few minutes. I know we think we'll only be gone for a minute...but the average burglary takes less than 5 minutes. * Install window locks if you want to leave the windows open for air. Locks also help if you have small children or pets that you want to protect. * Lock or chain your ladders or scaffolding equipment. Most thieves aren't carrying a ladder or tool to assist them. They're banking on us to provide their equipment. * Lighting...inside and out. Motion detectors are great. * Those of you with dogs...kudos. Burglars hate noise and dogs are noisy. * Running out during the day...leave a radio or television on. * Bushes/shrubs...keep them neatly trimmed. * Etch your property!!! Please use your OLN from your drivers' license. That number never changes and we can track you via DMV. Make a video log of your valuables. * Always take your cell!!! I have instructed my teenage daughter to do the same. Camera phones can capture images of suspicious persons, license plates of vehicles, accurate make/models of vehicles, ect. Finally, I can arrange to have the detectives from the Burglary Division attend a meeting in Highland Park or the Zone 5 Public Safety meeting to assist with tips and prevention strategies. Stay safe and thanks for staying involved. Cmdr RaShall M. Brackney, Commander Zone Five Station Penn Circle West and Ansley Pittsburgh, Pa. 15206 (412) 665-3605
