<P>
<DIV>Thanks for the message Diana.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'd also like to say my elderly neighbor paid a man to rake his leaves a
few weeks ago. The man came back later that night saying he needed money to
see his friend who had just been shot. After being refused, he tried
to come in to the house to use the phone. Luckily, my neighbor who
has several times been a victim of crime, did not let him in and called the
police. Everyone should be careful and please keep an eye out for those who are
more vulnerable.<BR><BR><B><I>Diana Mitchell

I-Neighbors.org.<BR>-------------------------<BR><BR><BR>Perhaps you could
pass this around to folks.<BR>Yesterday, midmorning (Tuesday, Nov. 29) I
called the cops on a couple<BR>of guys who seemed to be casing the
neighborhood. I saw them on our 600<BR>block of West University Pkwy.,
knocking on doors and peering into<BR>ground-floor windows and gazing up at
second-floor windows (or copper<BR>gutters perhaps.) I watched em go from
house to house and when they<BR>approached our house, I popped out and
confronted them and they<BR>stammered something about wondering if we needed
gutters cleaned. They<BR>didn't have any tools or truck that I could see. I
told them NO and<BR>they zipped off, heading north on University. I dialed
911. A neighbor<BR>on Keswick answered the door, got the same gutter story,
and also<BR>called the police.<BR>They were both white guys in maybe their
late 20s or 30s. The one who<BR>knocked had dark hair, a moustache, I think,
and a red & black plaid<BR>jacket or shirt. The other guy who hung back by
the street had lighter<BR>hair I think and a blue
bandana.<BR> </BLOCKQUOTE></FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
