HOME INVASIONS

During the past two weeks, our City has experienced two attempted burglaries of homes. The first one was an attempt on Grosse Pointe Court at approximately 11:00 pm in which a back screen was removed while the resident was home. It appears the homeowner's dogs may have scared the perpetrator away.

The second incident occurred on St Clair just south of Mack Avenue. The homeowner confronted a subject during the day in her home upstairs. The perpetrator ran out of the house and jumped on his bicycle riding north towards Mack. The upstairs was ransacked. The perpetrator is described as a black male in his twenties. He was riding a large, dark colored cruising type bike.

It is unknown if these incidences are related, but residents are advised to lock all windows and doors even when home, and to set their alarms. Watch your neighbor's property and report suspicious activity and persons to the police.
