Hello All!
The police were called today, 6-6-2008. They came out and said DO NOT let this man into your home..............
***White male walking door to door, approx. 6'0" tall, brown hair and eyes. Wearing shorts and and a lime green and white striped shirt.
I personally happened to be home during the incident and witnessed it first hand while sitting in my office in the front of the house........
He went to my neighbor and said he lived on the front street and asked for 2 eggs for his mother to finish making brownies.
He then went next door.....no one home. Then came to my home rang the doorbell and I did not open it. He rang again.......and again. I went to the door opened it told him my neighbor already called, I have no eggs, and to please leave. I shut the door, locked it and return to my office only to have him remain on my patio knocking, ringing the doorbell, snickering, and saying something through the door. He went away in about 1 minute.
He made his way to my next neighbor who called 911.
He made it all the way to a house on Nightshade Dr. who he sold a magazine subscription for a school in which he had no paperwork for. The family wrote him a $24.00 check - now he has the family's checking account #.
Please alert your watch zones!!!!!!!!!! And remind them to keep looking out for each other and to not let solicitors or strangers "in need" into their homes - they could just be scopeing it out to rob you. Go out to your porch or drive to talk to people.
Thank You:
Amy Amico

BEWARE OF PAPER ON THE BACK GLASS OF YOUR VEHICLE :
NEW WAY TO DO CAR JACKING
Heads up everyone. Please, keep this circulating...
You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside.
You start the engine and shift into Reverse. When you look into
The rearview mirror to back out of your parking space, you notice
A piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So, you
Shift into Park, unlock your doors, and jump out of your
Car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing
Your view.
When you reach the back of your car, that is when the
Car jacker(s) appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and
Take off. They practically mow you down as they speed off
In your car.
And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car.
So now the carjacker has your car, your home address, your
Money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity is
Now compromised!
NEW TRICK FOR RAPISTS??
Know what money you are carrying! You will see why as you read!
Criminals are coming up with craftier, less threatening methods of attack, so we have to be extra cautious.
Here is one lady's true life experience that can help us all:
It was approximately 5:15 a.m. in Opelousas, La. I had stayed with a friend there and was on my way to work.
I stopped at the Exxon/Blimpie Pie station to get gas. I got $10 gas and a Diet Coke. I took into the store two $5 bills and one $1 bill (just enough to get my stuff).
As I pulled away from the store, a man approached my truck from the back side of the store (an unlit area). He was an "approachable-looking" man (clean cut, clean shaven, dressed well, etc.).
He walked up to my window and knocked. Since I'm very paranoid and "always looking for the rapist or killer," I didn't open the window I just asked what he wanted.
He raised a $5 bill to my window and said, "You dropped this."
Since I knew I had gone into the store with a certain amount of money, I knew I didn't drop it.
When I told him it wasn't mine, he began hitting the window and door, screaming at me to open my door, and insisting that I had dropped the money!
At that point, I just drove away as fast as I could.
After talking to the Internal Affairs Department and describing the man I saw, and the way he escalated from calm and polite to angry and volatile....it was determined that I could have possibly encountered the Serial killer myself.
Up to this point, it had been unclear as to how he had gained access to his victims, since there has been no evidence of forced entry into victim's homes, cars, etc. The fact that he has been attacking in the daytime, When women are less likely to have their guard up, means he is pretty BOLD.
So think about it...what gesture is nicer than returning money to someone that dropped it?????
How many times would you have opened your window (or door) to get your money and say thank you... because if the person is kind enough to return something to you, then he can't really be a threat....can he????
Please be cautious! This might not have been the serial killer.. but anyone that gets that angry over someone not accepting money from them can't have honorable intentions.
The most important thing to note is that his reaction was NOT WHAT I EXPECTED! A total surprise! But what might have happened if I had opened my door? I shudder to think!
