POLICE REPORT - Kim Guess: We are passing around the stats and a map. You can see how you rank. The Avenues have a great many car strips and car thefts. Because a lot of people park in the street, we have to make sure we don't leave things in the cars that entice thieves to steal. The thieves are looking for CD's or stereos. If you have an alarm system, it helps. Also, park under lights if possible. Always keep your doors locked. A lot of time people come by just to do window bashing. COMMENT: A neighbor was on her deck and saw a car being robbed. She called down to them, and they refused to leave. She called 911 and there were no police available to come. So they just stripped the car and didn't pay any attention to her. RESPONSE: Sometimes summer nights get really busy, and if there is no one available, there is nothing we could do. Be sure that you leave your windows locked. Keep valuables in a safe.

They take money and disappear. Be aware of any scams like these.
