RE: [UC] Property Theft

[Dubin, Elisabeth]

The day before yesterday something funny happened.  My roommates came home and said they had just "foiled a caper."  Apparently, as they were walking the dogs home, they saw a guy with a shopping cart in front of the house on the corner (I think it's 516 or 519 S. 46th) and in the cart he had one part of a two-part concrete planter.  The other part was still in the yard.  He was just standing around looking up at the sky.  So they stopped walking and stood there talking for awhile and he never moved, so finally they went up and rang the doorbell while the guy was still standing there.  At that point, the guy actually PUT THE PLANTER BACK and went away.  So, the roomies came home feeling good about preventing that theft.  Unfortunately, this morning when I was walking to the trolley I looked over and saw two empty spots there where there used to be planters.   I used to think people only stole things that had high resale value so they could buy crack.  NOW CONCRETE PLANTERS?    WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO????  No planter is safe.  Everyone, bring your planters inside!!!  Or bolt them down.  Mutter, mutter...   ELISABETH DUBIN      hillierARCHITECTURE        T 215 636 9999 | F 215 636 9989 One South Penn Square | Philadelphia | PA | 19107-3502 www . hillier . com -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Jonathan Cass Sent: Friday, March 26, 2004 8:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [UC] Property Theft It is that time of year again -- a concrete planter was stolen from in front of our house (4600 block of Larchwood) last night.  Even without dirt (which was dumped) it is pretty heavy so I am somewhat surprised that it was taken.    Jonathan A.
