Dear HOA and Community Leaders:

It appears we have a serial stabber in our midst, who has stabbed three black men (all of whom are recovering) within the past week.  The crimes appear to be racially motivated, and this person has apparently stabbed people in Flint, MI (some of whom died).

The news release from the police dept. is pasted below, and attached.  I would appreciate it if you would post this to your respective email lists, HOA discussion boards, etc.  However, please be assured the police are handling this so they can bring this nut to justice.

Thanks!

Leesburg Police Urge Residents to Take Safety Precautions

Leesburg, VA (August 9, 2010) – In the wake of three assault incidents in the Town of Leesburg during the past week, Leesburg Police are urging residents to be alert to their surroundings and to report any suspicious activity.

The following are a series of personal safety tips offered by the Leesburg Police:

·         Be aware of your surroundings at all times.

·         Avoid areas that are abandoned, secluded or poorly lighted.

·         When walking, jogging or running, go with a partner.

·         If you do go alone, tell a family member or friend where you will be and when you expect to be back.

·         Carry a cell phone with you.

·         Don’t wear earphones that can reduce your ability to hear someone coming up from behind you.

·         Report any suspicious activity to law enforcement immediately.

The Leesburg Police Department’s non-emergency phone number is 703-771-4500.

“We want people to go on with their normal lives,” Leesburg Police Chief Joe Price emphasized. “But we also want residents to take reasonable precautions to stay safe.”

1. Woodlea resident reported the following that happened this afternoon. Two guys walking around neighborhood telling people they are UVA students selling books for school trip and books go to Children’s Hospital. The one guy said he lives here. The resident showed him the directory and his name not there. Then he said they rent. Pointed wrong direction to the street he named. The Woodlea resident asked for their UVA ID’s and he said the book company made them give them to them as collateral. Remember, ALL SOLICITORS should have a valid solicitor’s license that should be visible at all times. Place a No Solicitor’s Sign in your Window. You can go to the Community Watch Website and print one.

2. Also, another resident reported their two cars were unlocked and they believe teens took loose change totally $10.
