Stoney Way

Wanted to pass on that we had gas siphoned out of our vehicle last night.  David found the gas cap hanging this morning and also noticed our neighbor across the street had an open gas cap.  Both cars were parked in the street.  Very frustrating and disconcerting that someone would do that!  Please spread the word to be on the lookout for people siphoning gas or carrying gas cans on the street.

Please keep an eye out for people siphoning gas or carrying gas cans on the street. Also, make sure to remove all items from vehicle to avoid attracting a thief from breaking into your vehicle. Keep vehicles clear of any belongings. Let's do our part to avoid becoming easy targets of crime.

Remember if you see a crime in progress please call 911 or 916-874-5111 (Emergency from cell phone). If gas is siphoned from your vehicle and you notice it the next day please report it to the Sheriff's non-emergency number 916-874-5115. The more calls and reports we make to the Sheriff's office regarding the crime activity in our neighborhood the better, remember if we don't report it, it didn't happen.
