Neighbors – I am hearing more and more reports of forced entry burglaries in the North Seattle community. I want to thank those who have spoken up about the burglaries that are happening because while these are terrible events, the more they are shared, the more we can be aware.

SPD has a great map that shows all of the recent police reports filed in the city.  Check North Seattle, and you’ll see the usual amount of green squares (this is property theft and damage), but what seems to be a growing amount of burglaries, specifically nonresidential.

Please keep aware of this map, report any suspicious activity, and report anything that happens to your property to the Seattle Police, even if they don’t respond directly, this helps them with gathering data on our community, and may increase police presence.

Thanks, neighbors, and stay safe out there.
