Thank you to Sara Wood with the City of Kent for these important reminders!
"We are hearing more and more instances of random people knocking on doors’ of homes during daylight hours. When the resident answers, these individuals ask a random or strange question or make some sort of excuse as to why they are at the door. This behavior is typical of “casing” homes to burglarize and these individuals are looking to see if anyone is home or not. Please report this by calling 911 and if you have a Block Watch, notify your neighbors of incidents that occur. If you happen to identify a car they are associated with, please report that and include the license plate number!
The weather is getting warmer and I just have to do my usual reminder about left open doors and windows. If you have your windows and doors open and they are not in line of sight of where you are, or you leave your house, or you go to bed, please double check that windows and doors have been locked. We start to see residential burglars gain access to homes by a left open window or door around this time of year when the sun actually decides to make an appearance."
