I didn't call the police. My neighbor did. I don't know how that
conversation went. I never saw the unit assigned to the call. I
flagged a police car driving by. I told him the above. He says he
didn't get the call but would pass on info to the officer who was
assigned to the call. By the time all this took place the suspicious
person was long gone.<br>

Suspicious Activity is cause for calling 911 so you did the
right thing. If you described the activity you observed that
should have been enough to get a squad car out to question the
suspect. And it is certainly enough to put the police on the
lookout for this individual. I get quicker results when I
call 911 by using my Northern District Crime Watch number (for
application see <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.charlesvillage.net">www.charlesvillage.net</a>,
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.charlesvillage.org">www.charlesvillage.org</a>, or ask me), and by using code words
like, "Suspicious person canvassing houses under false
pretenses," etc. The activity you described is what burglars
do to determine which houses have someone home and which do
not.<br>
<br>
I am meeting with Deputy Major Worley at 1 PM today at the
monthly CVCBD SAC meeting and can have a discussion with him
about your experience. But he will ask me for details.<br>
<br>
Did the police arrive? Did they question the suspect? If not,
can you give me a description of the suspect? What did the
suspect do after he left your house? What block of which
street did it occur on? Please provide some additional
details, including your neighbor's name, address, phone
number, and your address and phone number to provide to police
who may want to speak to you before trying to locate and
question the suspect.<br>

to tell me of a <br>
young man,knocking on doors, asking to see people's BG&E
bill. Talking <br>
about a 30% discount. He would need the account # to call in
for the <br>
discount. I tried to engage him in conversation while my
neighbour <br>
called the police.<br>
During the wait for police, I call BG&E. Took me
15minutes to talk to a <br>
voice. I got sneaky and pressed the gas leak choice in the
menu. I was <br>
told under no circumstances would a BG&E employee OR any
subcontractor <br>
come to a home requesting to see the bill.<br>
I realise no violent crime was in progress, but waiting for
the police <br>
was like waiting for Congress to agree on something. This
occurred in <br>
the Barclay, Vineyard neighbourhood.<br>
<br>
Be aware.<br>
