Shortly after 10:00 a.m.this morning my husband Dennis and I were out and received a call from the RPD asking us to return home as there had been an attempted breakin at our home. Our arrival was greeted by 4 RPD cars. A technician dusted the door and the broken glass. We were very fortunate that a neighbor accross the street saw them and phoned 911. The police did arrest a youth but he was not identified as one of the people my neighbor had seen. He had an outstanding warrant so in any case its one more hood off the street. It proves once again that the best investment one can make is getting to know your neighbors.

Just a point of interest; as the officers were walking around looking for screwdrivers or other tools that might have been used they found a broken expansion bracelet Medical alert. I raked all the front area yesterday and it definely wasn't there then. They hope it may link to another robbery.

Be alert, be aware and be safe !
