Thanks for the heads up on this. Historically, we have a rash of burglaries starting from Labour Day and continuing until mid-January. I think that the criminals are "Christmas" shopping in our neighbourhood. This has been going on during this time period since I've lived here...you've got to be far more cautious during this time period than you normally would. Always check your doors and windows before you leave home to make sure that they're locked and always turn on your alarms. Be aware that when you're coming home or about to leave home, someone may be hiding in the bushes around your home and may try to snatch your purse or wallet. It's always safest to carry your keys in a manner that you have a key protruding thru your fingers in case someone does try something...you can aim for the eyes with the key. If you hit your target...that'll stop them and you can call the cops afterward. I think that it's probably time to get the West District captain to come to our meetings again and address this annual crime wave that we have. : Hi all, : I just wanted to let people know that there has been a series of robberies happening in our neighborhood, just on my block(Fairview ave)alone, there have been two in one week. The police said there were several on Jewett as well.
