My neighbor just called to ask if we heard the gunshots last night. We didn't. They said there were four or five gunshots on the school ground about 12:50 am and then wheels squealing when one or more cars left. The police showed up quickly and apparently patrolled the neighborhood for a couple hours BUT nobody saw anything. I believe the Green's, Duvall's and Gee's talked to the police. Just thought everyone ought to know!! Thanks, Pat Heath

Message received from residents on New Haven
just wanted to let you know someone attempted to steal our Honda Accord from our driveway around 6:45 this evening. The alarm sounded and when we made it outside, we saw no one. The driver side back window had a hole punched through it just above the inside door look but we found nothing inside. We have the car completely emptied to sell it so they were not after the contents. Please spread the word so people can be on the lookout for strange or suspicious people in the neighborhood. If anyone looks like they don't belong, the police will come and check them out - we just have to call.

Safety tip
Put your car keys beside your bed at night. If you hear a noise outside your home or someone trying to get in your house, just press the panic button for your car. The alarm will be set off, and the horn will continue to sound until either you turn it off or the car battery dies.

When you get a minute, would you please add something to the website to remind our neighbors to make sure their cars are locked at night. A few years ago my husband left his car unlocked ? twice(!) within a month. Both times someone opened the car and helped themselves to whatever was in there. Just recently a man who lives across the street from us left his car unlocked and it was pilfered. I believe we have young people walking through the neighborhood checking car doors each night. The little creeps will take anything they want!

Here is something worth knowing if you have a mobile phone .
Have you ever wondered why phone companies don't seem interested in trying to prevent the theft of mobile phones? If you have ever lost, or had one stolen, and if you are on a plan, you still have to pay the plan approximately up to 24 months, and you have to buy another handset and enter into another contract. This is more revenue for the phone company. There is a simple way of making lost or stolen mobiles useless to thieves and the phone companies know about it, but keep it quiet. To check your mobile phone's serial number, key in the following on your phone: star-hash-zero-six-hash ( * # 0 6 # ) and a fifteen digit code will appear on the screen. This is unique to your handset. Write it down and keep it safe. Should your mobile phone get stolen, you can phone your service provider and give them this code. They will then be able to block your handset, so even if the thief changes the sim card, your phone will be totally useless. You probably won't get your phone back, but at least you know that whoever stole it can't use/sell it either. If everybody did this, there would be no point in stealing mobile phones. You may want to send this to as many people with mobiles as possible. No charge for directory assistance
Phone companies are charging us $1.00 or more for 411 - information
calls when they don't have to.
When you need to use the 411 / information option!, simply dial 1-800-FREE-411 or 1 800 373 3411 without incurring a charge.

A good story that I heard last night. At a recent Patrick Henry meeting a resident living at 46th Place and Pittsburg reported a break in at their house that occured in April 2006. The front door had been kicked in and jewelry and other items taken. THE GOOD NEWS. During the police investigation someone had noticed a strange vehicle and reported it. That vehicle was located while in the process of disposing of items taken in another burglary. The vehicle was spotted by a policeman that remembered the description of one identified as suspicious and arrested a man and his wife near the dumpster behind Johnnies Charbroiler. They have since been sentenced to 5 years in the pen and the resident was able to recover a watch. Not much to recover but great satisfaction and proof that neighborhood alerts work.

Just wanted to give you a heads up, I live on 41st Place between
Sandusky and Pittsburg, our neighbor across the street and another
neighbor said that change, etc. was taken from their cars last night.
The cars were unlocked and that is the only reason why we weren't hit.

A few days ago they announced on the local TV news program a phone
number for Tulsa County which people can call to request their city block and a
certain area they specify to be sprayed for mosquitos.
However they also said that Tulsa County will only spray for
mosquitos the areas with the most people
located in a square mile who call the phone number and make the
request by leaving a message with
their specific address on a voice mail recording, etc.
The Tulsa County phone no. to call requesting your area be sprayed
for mosquitos is 918-595-4219.

One of my neighbors (42nd & Sandusky) experienced some vandalism last week that I thought I´d pass along. She called to tell me that she had bought and installed some new landscape lights ? the solar kind that line the walkway. That very night someone (or a few someones) broke most of them and stole the tops off most of them. They also sent one of her prized potted plants crashing to the ground, breaking the pot. I advised her to call the police, which she did (I saw the police car there a little later). I think one of our other neighbors who takes a daily walk recovered a few of the tops that had been thrown in a yard at the end of the street.
I told my neighbor I would let others know. I´m sure it was kids walking through the neighborhood late at night. It´s so frustrating and a little disturbing to think about this type of thing happening while we sleep. I´m not sure what can be done about random acts of vandalism like this ? short of taking turns staying up all night on watch! I wonder if anyone else has experienced this type of thing lately.

Hello Everyone...I met with PSO's people last Thursday afternoon to discuss their tree trimming program. The next circuit on their plan in our area is along Harvard and Jamestown between 46th and 44th. Present for PSO were Lisa Johnson of Customer Services, Jennifer Leber, a Reliability Manager, and Richard Bewley, a Forestry Supervisor.
2006, June 1; Report forwarded from Steve Summers VP Neighborhood Association
Report of Neighborhood Meeting, 5/30
2006, June 1: Theft Report 3700 Block of 48th Pl.
while I was away last week, someone stole a statue of St. Francis of Assisi from my front flower beds. It was heavy concrete and about 2-1/2 feet tall - and right in area of a yard light. Since I was out of town, I don't know the date it was taken - so I guess there's no point in informing the police. But, I only live three doors to the east of the Nelson's who had their shed broken into about two weeks ago. Looks like this block may be targeted.
Just wanted you to know.
2006, June 1: Subject Neighborhood PSO Tree Trimming
Hey Everyone...Lisa Johnson of PSO Customer Services returned my call today. She said their normal schedule is to begin trimming a circuit 3-4 weeks after meeting with the appropriate homeowners/neighborhood association and she would like to meet with our neighborhood reps as soon as possible. I told her we probably couldn't set something up with her before mid-late next week because it would take us at least that long to get input and formulate some kind of coherent list of concerns. I gently reminded her of the bad publicity PSO's trimming program has received in the past year or two and said that folks were probably most concerned that a crew (many of whom may not speak very good english) would just barge into their backyards and start butchering their trees.
Between 1 am and 7:30 am Sunday morning (May 21), someone came in through their back gate and went to their storage shed in the far corner of their back yard. A lawn mower and back pack blower were taken. Nelson's called the police and have filed a report. The policeman who answered the call was Duke Stitten (last name?) - he has our beat and Pam told him she would be calling me. He thought that was a good idea and said if we need him again, to let him know. We may not be stopping the bad guys yet, but by communicating like this I'll bet we can slow them down!

We have had reports of a panhandler in the area. A woman on a bicycle with a story and wanting money. Not asking for a dollar or two but upwards of $20.00. If she comes to your door please call the police and have her removed. If memory serves me correctly she was in the neighborhood a couple of years ago with the same story.
