Neighborhood Watch

I have been busy over the last week with details. Over a dozen homes in our area and surrounding neighborhoods have been burglarized over night while people were at home sleeping.
The latest was last night, just down the road from me. They entered through a window that was not
locked.

We are instituting a neighborhood watch. If you live in a neighborhood and do not have signs up saying your
neighborhood participates in one, you may want to contact your local police or sherriff's dept.

They will come out and hold a meeting in your neighborhood to help educate and train the citizens on
what measures they can take.

One thing we are planning to also start is an email group to notify everyone in the neighborhood immediately if someone is robbed. Getting the communication 3 weeks later is too late. So people can get text messages on their phones, emails or phone calls to alert them. Also to let people know if there are suspicious cars in the area.

I know that many residents including myself are not getting alot of sleep, these thieves are checking doors, and windows on houses throughout the area.

It has been rough over the last week. We have stayed inside alot and kept the doors locked out of fear.
Not knowing who it is doing this.

Pray that they will catch these people before someone gets hurt.
