Crime & Safety Update

January 2013 | 1/11/2013

On Thursday, January 10th during the day, there was a break in on South Balch Street. A backdoor window was broken while the residents were at work and stolen items included computers, money, jewelry and small electronics.

Please keep an eye out on your street, particularly for anyone casing houses, walking up driveways or in backyards who has no business being there. Report all suspicious persons to the Akron Police Non-Emergency number at (330) 375-2181.
