The Crime Stoppers Information - Crime Meeting Held Monday June 22, 2009

Some important information we all need to know:

Phone Numbers to report a crime:
911 - Emergency

862-8600 (If you think you hear gunshots or you feel that the police need to come,
you need to let the person that answers the phone that you want to have a police person show up)

Hermitage Police phone Number: 880-1776 (Main Number)

Many of the Neighbors have heard "Gun Shots Fired" or could have been "Firecrackers" the last week or so many times----yes it is important to call the police when you hear the noise. If more of make the calls the police will be able to take extra action to find out what is going on). They have special units for issues like this, but, this cannot happen if we just ignore it.

For the units not facing the Golf Course, if you see people walking in your backyards, that should not be there....this is private property and they should not be there. Last week there were about 15 kids hanging out behind the front entrance units. I told them it was private property and to leave. They left but, did start throwing rocks at windows and cars. The police were called and three of them were caught. We just want to scare them away. (HOA is working on getting no trespassing signs).

Be on the look out for your neighbors and they will do the same in return.

Crime Stoppers Program - this is a program used that if you think something is going on around you but not sure what it is...You can call or email the information
in and not give your name. This program works...I have seen it for myself..
