From Tom K. at 5th Ave villas, regarding an incident a few weeks back…

Hi,

Some time yesterday (Sunday) a long extension ladder was used to get onto the balcony of one of our owners along 20th Street. We have no idea where this ladder came from but it was used to steal a very expensive mountain bike from the balcony of this owner. He will be calling the police to file a report but whether or not he will be able to recover his bike is questionable. In any case, this should serve as a warning to all of us not to leave expensive personal property on our balconies and to make sure that the doors from the balcony into the actual unit are locked at all times.

Please be mindful of your belongings in porches or balconies. As always, let our crime watch know of any suspicious activity so we can put everyone on alert.
