I didn't call the police. My neighbor did. I don't know how that
conversation went. I never saw the unit assigned to the call. I flagged
a police car driving by. I told him the above. He says he didn't get the
call but would pass on info to the officer who was assigned to the call.
By the time all this took place the suspicious person was long gone.

Suspicious Activity is cause for calling 911 so you did the right
thing. If you described the activity you observed that should have
been enough to get a squad car out to question the suspect. And it is
certainly enough to put the police on the lookout for this
individual. I get quicker results when I call 911 by using my
Northern District Crime Watch number (for application see
www.charlesvillage.net, www.charlesvillage.org, or ask me), and by
using code words like, "Suspicious person canvassing houses under
false pretenses," etc. The activity you described is what burglars do
to determine which houses have someone home and which do not.
I am meeting with Deputy Major Worley at 1 PM today at the monthly
CVCBD SAC meeting and can have a discussion with him about your
experience. But he will ask me for details.
Did the police arrive? Did they question the suspect? If not, can you
give me a description of the suspect? What did the suspect do after he
left your house? What block of which street did it occur on? Please
provide some additional details, including your neighbor's name,
address, phone number, and your address and phone number to provide to
police who may want to speak to you before trying to locate and
question the suspect.

Tues, ar'd mid 4pm give or take, my neighbour called to tell me of a
young man,knocking on doors, asking to see people's BG&E bill. Talking
about a 30% discount. He would need the account # to call in for the
discount. I tried to engage him in conversation while my neighbour
called the police.
During the wait for police, I call BG&E. Took me 15minutes to talk to a
voice. I got sneaky and pressed the gas leak choice in the menu. I was
told under no circumstances would a BG&E employee OR any subcontractor
come to a home requesting to see the bill.
I realise no violent crime was in progress, but waiting for the police
was like waiting for Congress to agree on something. This occurred in
the Barclay, Vineyard neighbourhood.
Be aware.
