SECURITY ALERT!!!
~LICENSE PLATES AND STICKERS STOLEN~

PLEASE BE CAUTIOUS, AWARE AND PROACTIVE!
IF YOU SEE ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD, PLEASE PLEASE CALL 911 OR THE NON-EMERGENCY POLICE NUMBER : (919) 560-4600!!!!

HERE ARE A FEW REPORTS FROM THE WEEKEND I JUST RECEIVED TODAY:

Last week my registration sticker was stolen from my car . I didn’t notice it, my husband did, only b/c the color was different than his. I spoke to the DMV about it & they have had numerous people to report stolen stickers. She stated that when updating your old sticker, it is a good idea to completely remove the previous ones, clean the plate area very well & make sure you rub on well afterwards.

Around 3 to 4 AM today (6/29) a resident heard a noise outside of her home on Accura Court. The noise was loud enough to wake her husband who is a deep sleeper. When they checked outside no one was there and they went back to bed. This afternoon she noticed her license plate was missing.

You can purchase a plastic cover with special screws . While this will not guarantee that they will not still get them but like locks it will be a little harder.
The police have been notified about these incidents.


If your plate is stolen, here is a link to DMV with instruction on what to do::

Alos, on Friday night (6/26) around 9pm an unidentified vehicle pulled in front of a house on the corner of Mystic and Carey. The car sat there with its lights on for about 10 minutes. When the vehicle finally drove off the man kept his face turned away from my house. However, I could see his side view from the light. On Saturday afternoon, I saw a gentleman walking up the street with a bag on his shoulder. He looked like the guy that was in the car the night before. He isn't someone I recognize from our neighborhood. Though no incident occurred to my knowledge this is suspicious activity.

It would probably be a good thing for everyone to keep an eye on their neighbor’s property, especially if you are going to be in town this weekend & they’re out of town. People are getting a little crazy & bold.

Please have a safe & happy 4th of July!
