Last night, my neighbor, who lives at 29 Beecher Unit 1 was broken into.
The criminal(s) broke into the apartment through the rear first floor window, which according to my neighbor had window stops in place. This is the second time the unit has been broken into in two year. The shades were drawn. There is a porch on the other side of the window.
A laptop and jewelry box were stolen. My neighbor left the apartment in the early morning and returned around 11:30 pm on Friday, 9/25/2009 to discover the robbery. A laptop and Jewelery box were stolen.
This crime has been reported.
We will be holding a meeting for neighbors on surrounding streets at 1:00 pm, at Beecher Street Park, to discuss this incident. The purpose of this meeting is to develop a plan to mobilize our neighborhood to prevent future occurrences.
Please keep an eye out while walk to and from the park - and while your there for our apts.
Call 911 to report suspicious behavior - people hanging around the sides and rears of building you do not recognize who don't seem to have a purpose for being there. Trust your gut!
