Subject: Possible burglars in the hood and pics of car

 Confronted two guys possibly trying to break into a house at the end of LMJ rd. at preserve entrance. Red Honda Civic, faded and peeling paint, lots of dents and scratches. Two white males , mid twenties. Driver had light hair crew cut, clean shaved, average build 5' 8" to 5' 10". Large tattoo on back , small rectangular tattoo (possibly lettering) on right side of neck, other tattoo's as well but I don't remember what they were. Light gray tank top and baggy worn jeans.

Passenger was slender build, dark strait hair, over ear length, mustache and had not shaved in a few days, white t-shirt did not get out of car, don't know height. A neighbor spotted the same car a few minutes earlier on Marine Dr. near the Hickman residence. Driver was out of the car and on the back porch inside screen enclosure when I approached. Passenger was on the phone probably signaling his accomplice that I was there. Told me they were looking for a friend and jumped in the car and split fast.

 

Suzanne Arnold 11:14 PM (8 hours ago) to Neighborhood Hello LMJ Neighborhood Watch, Had a few things happen today and I’m still waiting for the details and photos, but just wanted to alert everyone.

 Around 2pm (1400 hours) today a red Honda car with 2 young men inside pulled up to a house at the end of LMJ Rd and Marine Dr.  No one was home and one of the guys went around back and started going into the screened in porch. The neighbor across the street said his dog was going crazy so he went over and talked to them. They claimed to know someone there – but obviously not.  In broad daylight, mind you.

The driver was a skinny guy with short blonde hair and tattoos on his neck etc. The other guy had brown hair. They left and went down LMJ Rd and may have taken a left near Winterset. The neighbor did not get the tag #. He called the cops but was not there when the cops got there later.

Around 3 or 3:30 a neighbor on LMJ Rd noticed that their screen on their dock-room had been ripped open. He went out to the dock and could see wet footprints as if someone got out of the water and onto their dock. The room portion was locked up so nothing was stolen.  He could hear people over at the IOP park and thinks someone may have swam over?

 If you have any information about these incidents – please let me know.  Keep your eyes open for suspicious behavior or unfamiliar vehicles in the area – especially an older red Honda.    GET A TAG # please! I will send more details once I receive them.

 SPEEDING – I have had quite a few people complaining about people speeding on our roads. Be warned – we may have cops out here soon with radar guns. I was thinking about putting together a meeting with some of the sheriffs to discuss what else we can do to help stop this dangerous problem. Let me know if you are interested in this.  Keep your eyes open!
