Important notice to all residents of Wills Creek:

Unfortunately it is that time of year when mail and parcel, and theft from vehicles are on the rise. Recently there have been a number of incidents in and around our complex where vehicles have been broken into and the lights above the mailboxes on the 3109 side of complex near the amenities building spray painted black. It appears this was a failed attempt to create an area of darkness to perpetrate a crime, presumably mail theft.

Residents are reminded again to take the following precautions to reduce any opportunity for thieves to steal anything.

  1. Remove or hide anything of value in your cars to avoid thieves from breaking windows or trying to gain access. Even seamlessly small amounts of change in cupholders will be enough to tempt thieves.
  2. Do not leave any parcels outside. If you are expecting a parcel and will not be home to receive it, arrange for a neighbour to pick it up until you get home.
  3. Empty your mailbox everyday and if you are away again arrange for a neighbour to get your mail.
  4. If you see anything suspicious no matter how insignificant call the police 911 if it is in progress, otherwise call the police non-emergency number. YOU will not be bothering the police by reporting suspicious activity.

Please lets all do our part to take a bit out of crime.
