Janine sent us the following email warning of car prowlers:
My boyfriend caught some car prowlers in the area of 23rd Ave NW and 77th around 1 a.m. last night. Three males dressed in black with backpacks. They scattered off when they noticed him and the Police were called. We also noticed about 20 minutes later a two door black Honda Accord speeding through the neighborhood a few times (possibly the prowlers hiding from SPD?). Remind everyone that summer nights, especially Sundays and Mondays, bring an increase of car prowlers between midnight and 4 am. Have them call any suspicious subjects in, especially good descriptions and any suspect vehicle plates, so we can send a message that this community is on the alert to them. Car prowlers are hard to catch, especially after the fact. Getting good info to SPD during a prowl is really the only way to help catch these guys.
