Edgewater Police Report from Chief John Mackey:
On September 26, 2015 at about 9 AM Edgewater Officers received a vehicle trespass report in the 2800 block of Harlan Street. The Edgewater resident indicated that he left his vehicle unlocked overnight. The resident found that someone had gone through his center console and glovebox although nothing was missing.
On September 25, 2015 at about 6:30 AM Edgewater Officers received a report of a vehicle trespass in the 2200 block of Harlan St. Officers were advised by a resident that his 1999 Chevrolet had been left unlocked overnight and that unknown person(s) entered into his vehicle sometime after 10 PM on the 24TH and 6:00 AM on the 25th. Thieves took a Kenwood CD/DVD stereo from his vehicle. Residents are reminded to lock their vehicle, as the majority of vehicle trespasses occur to unlocked vehicles
Edgewater Officers responded to the Providence Tavern, 5280 W. 25th Avenue on two separate occasions this past week on patrons having their unattended and unlocked bicycles taken from the front sidewalk area of the business.
