• THEFT ALERT FOR ITEMS DELIVERED TO HOMES

  • December 9, 2011

    Police want to notify residents that there is a rise in theft of packages being delivered to by US Mail and commercial carriers to homes which are left unattended during this holiday season.

    Residents are reminded that deliveries should be accepted in person when possible or arraignments made to have items retrieved by a responsible person, possibly a neighbor as soon as possible.

    The Police Department is requesting your assistance in being vigilant and reporting any suspicious people or activity in your area by watching your neighbor’s homes. Examples of suspicious include, unidentified people going door to door or suspicious vehicles parked or moving slowly through the neighborhood area.

    When reporting activity, police dispatchers will request as much information as possible. Please try to report a precise location and detailed descriptions of suspicious people including gender, race and clothing and for vehicles include make, model, color and license plate numbers if possible.

    Please report all activity to the police at 203-481-4241 or in an emergency by 911.

    In addition, please follow the B-Informed link. There you will be able to tailor the information you would like to receive in the future and register different ways to be notified including cell phones, pagers and email address.
