A note from a neighbor:
I just wanted to let you know about a couple of recent incidents on our block. This morning at 4:30 AM, we saw a guy walking with a rolling garbage can (which we are pretty sure was stolen). When we looked out again at 5:00 AM, the same guy was walking back without the bin & said something threatening about whether we’d made sure all of our garbage cans were there.
Also, last Sun morning when we got up, we saw that our huge plant in a large, heavy yellow (cracked) ceramic was gone & there was dirt strewn across the sidewalk. When we checked our camera recordings, we saw that around 2:35 AM that morning, 2 guys were walking up & down our side of the street with a wagon, looking into people’s front yards. They then came back to ours and took the plant & pot. It looked like they threw the plant out, but we couldn’t find it.
We will keep an eye on our cameras.
