From Laurel Martin
on Sleepy Hollow Road
A work colleague passed this to me and it might be something we want to mention as a potential thing to watch out for in our own neighborhood. Regards, -- Laurel
… the following from Gracy Woods Neighborhood Association. Please take notice and pass along.
FYI - The Constables have informed me that we now have a criminal ring in Austin that drives up to houses with a trailer and landscape equipment. They are unloading the mower, turning it on, and then using the noise and the landscaping equipment to mask that they are breaking into houses.
We also had a criminal recently arrested who had outfitted his truck to make it look like he was a painter. He was doing home break-ins and may have been involved in a possible rape (?).
Please get out the word to your neighborhoods and list serves. We need everybody to extra vigilant. Please do not just assume a contractor or alandscaper has a reason to be there.
