Recently King 5 News ran a clip of a suspect attempting to kick in a homeowner’s door. The resulting pictures of the suspect should guarantee his capture and conviction.
This is a great point for why CCTV systems help keep you and your neighbors safe.
Please watch this great video:

Below is a link to a story of a package theft in the San Francisco area. It shows the thief strolling up to the door of a house and stealing a package, then happily prancing (there is no other word that more accurately describes it) away. Then she is seen crossing the street to steal yet another package from a neighbor. The prancing thief’s haul from the first house was a birthday gift for a 4 year old girl.
The thief’s picture is fairly clear, but if the homeowner had better cameras it would have been easier to identify her. Additionally, it appears that she might be putting the stolen packages in a car parked at the curb. If neighbors also had high quality video cameras, it is quite possible that the woman’s license plate would have been captured.
These days the police depend more and more on video captured by nearby cameras to solve crimes. We hope the package thief in the video gets a knock on the door and a nice shiny set of handcuffs to go with her outfit. Neighbors are sharing the video on social media in hopes that someone recognizes the suspect.

As most of you know we sent out a Neighborhood Alert because of bear sightings on the north end of 136th Ave. E. and just above us in Heather Hills. No pictures of the bear yet.
Valarie Okazaki wrote to say that because of the bear sightings in the Neighborhood she is hesitant about going on her morning walk. She did some research and found this: http://www.bear.org/website/bear-pages/black-bear/bears-a-humans/119-how-dangerous-are-black-bears.html
