LMJ Neighborhood Watch Camera Committee Meeting

Hello LMJ Neighborhood Watch Members,

We will hold our first meeting of the LMJ Neighborhood Watch Camera Committee on Thursday July 14 at our Isle of Pines Neighborhood Park at 6:30pm. Any of our members are welcome to participate! We already have several people that work for security companies that may be able to give us guidance – and we will also have someone from the Sherriff’s Office as well. All donations going forward will go towards the cameras – so hopefully by mid July we will start to have an idea of what we can spend.

Suspicious Van in Live Oak

In Live Oak there was a suspicious white van late night Wed (12:30 am Thursday.) It was an older model extended panel van (no side windows) possibly a Chevy. Two different neighbors saw it driving slowly around – and it followed a car on Mastwood with a teenage girl in the passenger side. They turned on Rambling Oak and then onto Smokerise and the van followed them and went to the end of the street and turned around. She was out with a young man that walked her to her door – and they believe when the person in the van saw that she was with a man – the van drove off – but turned to drive farther into the neighborhood. No one was able to get a tag # - but please be on the lookout. There is another white van that drives in our neighborhoods late Wed night to deliver the Osceola Gazette, but we confirmed that van is a conversion travel van with windows, and it has stripes running along the sides under the windows.

Suspicious car in Roberts Island

Monday night there was a low riding Silver El Camino with dark tinted windows with a very loud throaty muffler driving by very slowly in Roberts Island. Just another vehicle we need to watch out for.

Please try to get tag numbers – but ONLY if you can do it safely!
