Last year we called the police on 3 kids rolling a box spring and mattress down Comstock on dollys
It turned out they were moving into a house by me from Asbury Ave Who wouldve thought that was a moving technique? I felt bad but the officers said we did the right thing Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry -----Original Message----- From: "fancypaaantz" <fancypaaa...@yahoo.com> Sender: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Date: Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:24:32 To: <AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com> Reply-To: AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com Subject: [AsburyPark] Re: Neighborhood watch - we call the police My house which is techinically a "condo" is condo'd with the mansion house on the same property. 5 units in the mansion and I am #6. Anyway, a few years back, someone broke into the basement of the mansion and stole the washer and dryer (common to all units). No one saw them. It is really kind of crazy to think of people walking off with a new washer and dryer out of a house or other large appliances! It was during the day too. I just picture these guys pushing a washer and dryer down the street on some kind of rollers and no one saying anything. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, "Hinge" <hinge98@...> wrote: > > Another good thing to do is call JCPL if you have any burnt out street > lights in your neighborhood. > The car jacking last week took place on Bergh right across the street from > me, on the block between AP Ave and 1st.
