From Lisa P, neighbor:
October 12: Late last night my father’s truck was broken into. They broke into his locked toolbox and stole all his tools. Good tools valued up to $100 worth. Since living in this neighborhood I have never encountered any issue and never thought we would have a robbery especially since we have security nightly. I want to inform the neighborhood so they can just their eyes open and hope that this was just a one time incident.
