[Chat] Attempted break in
Sunday night someone attempted to break into our back second floor bedroom. Emil was already in bed (about 2:30 AM) but I had gotten up to check a scheduling problem I thought I might have Monday and was on the computer in the front second floor room. Emil called to me asking if I had heard something. I called back that I hadn't. We chalked it up to noise from next door or out in the alley. The next day when I pulled up the blinds in the bedroom, a small flower pot on our outside bedroom windowsill had been moved. Then I noticed that the screen was pushed up and a plastic chair on the balcony was moved to be in front of the window (so someone could stand on it presumably). We did call 311 and they send a couple of officers to come and look. They were very nice but didn't take a report. They said they'd make a note to put our house on some sort of special watch list for a couple of nights. We don't have stairs from our back 1st floor deck to the second floor one but the house next door is 3 apartment so they have connecting steps (required by fire law to have a back exit from every apartment). I assume the person came up there stairs and climbed over the rail separating our two decks but was then scared away when Emil called to me. Very scary. So, be aware and watchful. -Kathleen -- Kathleen Wilsbach [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Chat mailing list Chat@charlesvillage.info http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info
Re: [Chat] Attempted break in
I'm sorry to hear that Kathleen. I know that is quite scary. We got a call on at 9 on Saturday night from our alarm company (we were at PJs enjoying a pizza and beer) that our alarm was going off. My partner and a friend came home to check on it as we assumed that it was a false alarm. No, in fact, as someone threw a rock through the front window breaking the storm and main window (luckily we have glass break sensors on the windows). The cops were great (they actually got here the same time as Paul who was only seven blocks away). They searched the entire house but they believe that it was probably just vandalism as it would not make sense for a break-in attempt to break a front window at 9 on a Saturday and only use a small rock. I did not sleep on Saturday but have adjusted now. It has been more of an inconvenience that anything else having to replace the glass in both windows. Stay safe! -Greg --- Kathleen Wilsbach [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Sunday night someone attempted to break into our back second floor bedroom.

Re: [Chat] Attempted break in
Hi Kathleen, I noted (on JHU reports and from neighbors) recent incidents of thieves (or the same thief) climbing up to people's back 2nd-floor porches to get in windows and doors. It's not that hard for a strong young man to do. One of my close neighbors heard someone in her roommate's bedroom about 10:00 p.m. (when she knew no one else was home) and then saw him escape from their 2nd floor apartment. Always insist on a police report; otherwise the incident/crime did not happen, is not officially counted or noted. I've been told to do so and that it is a citizen's right. The police, of course, would rather not, because it's more work for them. But when resources are allocated, incidents without a written report (and number) are invisible. I depend on my dog to scare off bad guys, but I really should do more to secure the second floor (deadbolt locks, window locks). Glad you're both okay!
