Last night (3 Sept.) I received an alert that  occupants of a vehicle somewhere near the intersection of Crystal Ridge Dr. SE and 39th St. SE had shot out the window of a vehicle.  The persons in the vehicle shown below had used a BB gun of some sort to do this act of vandalism.  Unfortunately even though the reporter provided a picture of the vehicle used in the crime, it was not clear enough to distinguish the passengers.  However the strange white markings on the right rear wheel make it very distinctive thus easy to recognize.

I have been monitoring the crime situation in our area and there a lot of car prowls and package thefts happening.  If at all possible, put your vehicle in a locked area at night and have someone at home when you are expecting a package. Of course having someone at home will not guarantee that you will not lose a package to a thief.  In one incident I know of the package was on the porch less then 3 minutes before it was stolen.  Obviously by thieves who were following the delivery truck.
