There were 3 burglars - 2 guys and 1 girls and all activity was captured on camera. They only stayed on the 2nd floor and went into the Master and 2 other bedrooms. The entered & exited our property from the golf course. They were all wearing backpacks when they entered the property but left with large duffle bags -no backpacks. They were in the house for 11 minutes.
Several of the break-ins have regrettably occurred under similar circumstances (golf course entry point, second floor) so please continue to exercise your own preventative measures and be aware of any suspicious activity – especially if you see individuals on the golf course.

MARCH 2016
A resident on Greeneagle Drive who had cleaners in their home received a knock on their door. The person at the door was persistent but the cleaners did not answer the door. Person rang the doorbell three times. The cleaners, feeling that something was urgent then answered the door. The individual at the door asked for the resident by name who was not at home. The individual send that he was there to install a light fixture. The cleaners would not let him in. He then pretended to call the resident on his cell phone and pretended that it was okay for them to come in and do the work. Thankfully the cleaners refused. The cleaners were able to note that it was a large, light colored SUV but we are not able to get the license plate number. Please share this incident with family members (or anyone working in your home) to remind them not to allow anyone in the home that has not been scheduled. People are using clever ways to try to gain access to our homes. Please share if you have any information or surveillance of this vehicle on Thursday, March 3 during the day.

We had a break in on The Links Drive around 9 AM. The pool company arrived at approximately 9:30 AM and headed in the usual way around the back. He noted the broken sliding glass doors just as two men escaped via the front door and left in a silver four-door BMW. The police were great and are doing a thorough investigation. Canine units came to the house and criminals left some blood at the scene so they collected DNA, took photographs of footprints and dusted for fingerprints.
