Residents Alarmed
Over Increased
Prowler Reports
During the past two weeks there
has been an increased number of
calls from local residents report-
ing prowlers, usually after 10 p.m.
Deputy Preston Sargent has re-
quested that all residents be even
more concerned about the increas-
ed number of prowlers being re-
ported and report any suspicius in-

rest. He suggested that neighbors
'be on the lookout for their neigh-
bors in that one family can see a
person near a neighbor’s home
more easily than around their own.
