Neighbor-to-Neighbor

On Thursday a Crossings Ridge resident parked his unlocked car in the garage and went into the house. Hearing a motor running in the front he looked out just in time to see a man running from his garage and jump in the truck. He grabbed his camera and took pictures as the car went down the hill. Then he jumped in his car and attempted to chase it until the driver began to drive erratically.

The thief had taken his laptop, cellphone, and IPad.

The policeman who came said he would fax the pictures to headquarters, then told him he should always close his garage and lock his car doors. Duh! The resident was underwhelmed by the policeman's reaction to the situation.

Again, please, dear neighbors, use your common sense for your security and safety.
