Highland Park Car Vandalism
by Jean Boyer 22 Jul '14

22 Jul '14

Early Sunday morning (around 3:15AM) my neighbor’s PA state vehicle, which was parked at the corner of Portland and Hampton Sts, had a cinderblock thrown through his back seat window. An unknown person called the police to report it and they were here quickly. The Police actually set the car alarm off to get the neighbors and owner's attention. Nothing was stolen but there was a concrete covered hand smear over the driver side window and door as if they were looking for something. His vehicle is filled with radios and other hand-held items necessary to perform his duties. The police found no suspects in the neighborhood. He is still in the process of cleaning the shattered glass out of the interior and wanted me to share his information so others would be aware. So, it does not matter if your car is locked. If someone has a cinderblock you are fair game." Thanks, Jean Boyer 1039 Portland St Pittsburgh, PA 15206 “"There is a certain malady commonly termed "big head" with which a large number of otherwise healthy people are afflicted. Prescription: Stand upon the brink of the Grand Canyon, gaze down, and still further down, into its awful depths, and realize for the first time your own utter insignificance."
