Dear neighbors,
I am posting this on our next door neighbors behalf (We live in the
1100 block of Portland Street)
A little after 11:00 am today our neighbors side basement door was
kicked in which set his house alarm off. He wasn't at home but his daughter was
asleep up on the 3rd floor(she was unharmed). The police were dispatched, and
fortunately the alarm scared them off. They left behind a 30 ft extension ladder
and a pair of tin snips. No one at home on our street saw anything suspicious.
The police have promised to try and step up patrols in this area.
Please keep a watch out and if you saw anything today call the police non
emergency number or let me know, and I will pass the info on to our neighbor.
Our neighbor just had his home alarm installed a few months ago, and is so
thankful that he did now. We have one also with glass break detectors and highly
recommend this to all.
Kind regards,
Rebecca,
Portland Street
