MANA Neighborhood Watch January 2013

From the Medlock Neighborhood Watch Team:  Happy New Year!  There have been great successes with the Neighborhood Watch programs in several neighborhoods.  One of our Medlock neighbors approached a guy who was parked in the driveway next to them and called the police.  He claimed to know the owners and did some fine sweet talking but was robbing the house.  The robber knew the homeowners were out of town.  In Toco Hills, 4 males were arrested for break ins due to the neighbors being alerted  to criminal activity.  The Watch is simple....be aware of what is going on around you and call 911 if you see suspicious people or activity.  Get to know your neighbors and watch out for each other.  Please read the attached E-letter.  We are connected to many of the N'hood Watch groups in the area and think it is important to know what is going on around us.
