Holiday decoration theft(s)

Neighbors:

We had reports this weekend about holiday decoration thefts. At least two. A family's holiday decoration being taken from their front yard. A large, 8-foot tall inflatable Tigger was taken from the home on Legacy Blvd sometime during Friday/Saturday night, and the family with three young children awoke to find it stolen. Another report is that a large Bear figure was stolen during the night between 8 p.m. and 12 a.m.

A few people had noticed at least two strucks suspiciously driving the streets last night, though that may or may not be connected. They apparently would slowly drive along, stop in front of a house, and park there briefly with lights out before creeping along to another house. One was a black truck that could resemble one seen during an October theft of two air conditioning units along Legacy. The second, a red truck, turned out to be some individuals looking for the house of resident they knew. However, two young girls who were home alone observed this black truck, and were worried enough to contact the police about it. Please be aware of this and keep your eyes open.

If a theft happens, PLEASE CONTACT THE GREENWOOD POLICE DEPARTMENT FIRST. The dispatch number is (317) 881-2518. Then, alert your neighbors and anyone on the Neighborhood Watch List so that we can help keep crime to a minimum.

Please also let your neighbors know your schedule during the holidays so if you are out of town, we can remain vigilant of your property and our neighborhood! Anyonelse who had anything taken last night, please let the police and your Neighborhood Watch Block Captain or Coordinator know.

We also hope that whomeover took the Tigger will return this decoration - please don't ruin a family's holiday celebration. Just return it - please.

Another note: with the winter weather and snow, please be mindful of your street parking. Snow plows can only do a good job in the areas they can get to. In this weather, please limit your street parking so they can do their jobs effectly. Thanks.
