Thanks to all those who came out to National Night Out again this year. We had a great turn-out and and lots of great exhibitors. The crime reports for September are below. I’ve already emailed about the rape that occurred at the Turtle Dove, that incident is below. As I’d mentioned, the police have a suspect in custody on that incident.

But behind the numbers we had a couple pretty serious incidents, read on for more. The good news is that we only had 2 burglaries (home break-ins) this month throughout the entire neighborhood. This has been a focus of ours for a while and I hope to see this stay low. The bad news is that one of these burglaries occurred while the residents were at home but Continue reading “May 2012 Crime Report”
