Everyone:
There are three areas of concern within the Third District. In May and currently in June, we are experiencing a series of stolen cars in the North Fairlington area. Over the last six weeks, 12 vehicles have been stolen. The vast majority are Jeep Grand Cherokee's and a few other Chrysler products. The cars are being stolen during the midnight hours and are being recovered in SE Washington. My best advice is to use the "Club" and park your car in a well lighted area. Additionally, if you see something out the ordinary please call 703-558-2222 or 911 if it is an emergency.
The second area of concern is 3000 S. Randolph St. This is an apartment complex were a peeping tom has been harrassing women for a long period of time. In the last week, he has accessed apartments through unlocked windows or doors and come into the apartment as the women were either in the shower or getting into the shower. When he is confronted, he leaves the apartment. I have attached a computerized composite of the suspect and we would appreciate any help you can give. I guess I have to keep saying it, keep your doors and windows locked!
The third area of concern is the area around Columbia Pike and S. Dinwiddie St. We have had several issues with the homeless drinking in public which leads to other quality of life problems. We are keeping an eye on the problem, but as I have said in the past this is a seasonal issue and will be persistant during the summer months.
