Last night we met with the West Chester Police Department to form a Neighborhood Watch for Knottingwood Estates. Thank you to all of the homeowners who attended the meeting. The purpose of a Neighborhood Watch is to prevent crime before it happens, and all of us can take part by becoming the eyes and ears of our neighborhood. When you drive down the street, you know who belongs there and who doesn’t. The main goal is to pay attention.
To report a possible crime:
1. Observe suspicious activity as inconspicuously as possible. Do not attempt to confront a suspect!
2. Try to identify the following:
3. Remain calm. To report a crime call 9-1-1 (for an emergency) or 513-777-2231 (West Chester’s non-emergency number).
In the next few weeks, Neighborhood Watch signs will be posted identifying our participation in the program. If you’re interested in attending a July 9th presentation by the West Chester Police Department on “Active Violence” at 6:30 pm, please contact us for further information, as an RSVP is required.
