Karen;
I would like to thank you for your phone call the other day to provide feedback on our crime prevention
program. Our department cannot operate efficiently without community support and feedback.
I did find your incident and have attached a copy of the officer's report. He notes he found your car at
0430 AM parked with the interior dome light on. This obviously raised concerns for him without seeing
the owner around, as this is often how we find cars that have been broken into.
Hopefully this information helps you understand what took place. We strive to provide neighborhood
patrols and let those residents know of obvious crime prevention items we see. Car prowling has been
very prevalent over the years in the area, and Stillwater has been seeing rash of incidents in recent
months. We have not had that yet, and have tried to head it off with our neighborhood patrols and
crime prevention awareness of the residents. In this case we hoped to bring your attention to not only
the crime prevention issue, but also to check your vehicle for missing items or damage when you
returned the next time.
Thank you,
Brian DeRosier
Chief of Police
