[Summit] attempted car break-in

[Hapfra at aol.com]

Thanks and I do not blame you for being discouraged....I also have  en 
counted different type of theft where I reside, just a few streets away from  
you....and so far I have not seen anything done to protect we in the  
neighborhood....Perhaps if a group of people come together and bring their  
complaints  to the SNA....more action can be taken....You may also want to  report 
this to the crime watch committee-who hold meets at the Miriam  
Hospital......Don't despair, we are all vulnerable as our neighbors when it  comes to 
theft--we must unite and stand together, and hopefully put an end to  this....H.

I am very sad to join the long list (again) of neighbors  who have their 
cars broken into or have experienced an attempted break-in. A  few years ago 
our front passenger window was smashed and this morning we found  a wire 
jammed into the driver side door lock. We have a motion-sensored bright  light 
that shines on the car, but clearly that’s not enough. A few years ago,  our 
landlord had all four tires of his car stolen with the car left up on  
cinderblocks. So, I guess it could be worse.  
But I don’t feel safe on the East Side anymore and I am  tired of reading 
all the complaining about the recycling cans being too big  and the donated 
toys at the playground being too messy.  
Is there really nothing we can do to stand up against these  thieves? To 
get the police department to stop shrugging their shoulders? To  come together 
on at least this one issue?  
I don’t have any great ideas about what we could do and am  new to this 
listserv so don’t know what has been done in the past, but I want  to be part 
of the solution. Feel free to contact me at _sgrabelle at verizon.net_ 
(mailto:sgrabelle at verizon.net)  if you would  like to talk off-line about a plan. 
Thank you.
