I am hearing reports of break-ins with similar MO in the 500 block of S. 48th St. and in the 900 Block of S. 49th St. Roger ----- Original Message ----- From: Leila Graham-Willis To: pfsni ; uclist Sent: Thursday, July 26, 2007 1:58 PM Subject: [UC] MORE break-ins / attempted break-ins
Below is what I sent to my neighbors on the 4600 block of Osage. We are not sure how many people are involved and if they are working together. Some neighbors have mentioned two guys together ringing their doorbells the past couple nights first to see if people are home. Please be careful and shut/lock windows that are easily accessible, even if they are in the second floor. Leila 4600 block Osage All - Just to update you regarding the above. Tuesday night between 10:30pm and 11pm, someone tried to break into B-- & D--'s house at 46xx by cutting the window screen on a second floor front open window. B-- was at home. The dogs started barking and scared the person off. The burglar then apparently rang M-- & M--'s bell to see if anyone was home. M-- was and the person left. Tonight at approximately 7:30pm, R-- noticed a man lurking in the bushes outside S--'s house (46xx) and looking into the windows, etc. He called the police but the man left before they came and did not break in. Around 8pm L-- and I spotted a man running from J--'s house at 46xx. We called the police and it turns out J--'s house was broken into. It appears the person entered by cutting a screen on a second floor front window. I am not sure what was taken. The descriptions of the men from Tuesday night and tonight differ slightly. What I got from Tuesday is a black male, tall and lanky. The person I saw tonight was about 5'7''-5'8", dark black male with dark short hair and a light t-shirt. He had some sort of bag that was black with orange. The police said to call 911 if you see anything suspicious, no matter how small you think it is. Explain that there have been break-ins on the block. This person (people?) is pretty bold to be breaking in while neighbors are out and about. Plus he is now going in via the second floor. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Local listings, incredible imagery, and driving directions - all in one place!
