BOLO, Bent Oak Look Out

Here is two alerts for our area..... Be Safe... Dave

NW ALERT #1
This ALERT was sent by the Orange County deputy in charge of the Sweetwater HOA's security detail. After receiving it, I called the OCSO Sector One Crime Prevention Officer, Deputy Alberta Gibson, who told me to forward it to my Neighborhood Watch list:

There are 4 black males traveling throughout Sweetwater and surrounding communities creating havoc. Their method of operation is to knock on a front door and if no one answers, they go around to the rear of the residence and commit a burglary. They are quick and hitting numerous houses in the area. The vehicle changes, because they steal various cars from another area and then commence to committing the burglaries. Please be vigilant until we catch them. The times of occurrence typically begin around 10:00 a.m. weekdays.


NW ALERT #2
This Alert comes from the OCSO Sector One Crime Prevention, Deputy Alberta Gibson:

The following three mini-vans are currently being stolen by people using them to commit crimes: Chrysler Town and Country, Dodge Caravan, and Plymouth Voyager. If you see such a vehicle backed into your neighbor's yard or driveway and the vehicle is unknown to you, take a close look (from inside your house!) to determine whether there is a burglary in progress. If that appears to be the case, dial 911 and report the incident. If you are the owner of such a vehicle, keep it in the garage, or if that's not possibe, keep it locked.
