General Update: Unfortunately, there has been an increase in criminal activity for our neighborhoods in November. HPD reported 4 home break-ins, 2 thefts, and 9 car burglaries. We also received one Crime Alert from the Constable concerning the backyard scams. However, these criminals were captured by our Precinct 1 Constable’s office, which you can read about here. You can click on the map for more detailed information. As noted above in the Crime Tip, this is a very profitable time of the year for burglars so keep your guard up and stay alert.

Constable Activity Report – November: Below is a run down of last month’s Activity Report from the Constable Patrol. Each time the deputy on patrol is called out or observes some activity of interest, he/she documents the call and the report is compiled at the end of the month. It’s a nice way to see what our deputies are up to!

*Contract Check refers to an observation and/or inquiry at a specific location (think of it as a drive by and safety check of your home). Meet the Citizen means precisely that. One of our patrolling deputies had the chance to engage with a neighbor!
