Constable Hayden explained to the almost forty residents that attended the block party on what to watch for and who to call. He also addressed other concerns from juveniles roaming the streets after curfew to 4 wheelers to suspicious activity in the wee hours of the morning.
One woman told the crowd how her house could have burned down when last week Constables discovered an extension cord run from her air conditioning shut-off to the home next door. That home owned by Michael and Dorothy Taylor had the power disconnected several weeks back. They were stealing her power to keep things in the house going. She explained how they had to actually go through her gate into her backyard to get to the box and how the wires were just hanging causing a fire hazard.
Michael Taylor was arrested last week along with his girlfriend on open warrants and a stolen SUV in the garage.
