Important Notice from the Deep Harbour Master Association

Email: October 14, 2015

Good Evening,

I'm asking everyone to keep ALL vehicles and property secured at all times and don't leave valuables in your vehicles whether locked or not. Lock your house and keep your garage doors closed and locked at all times as we have had several thefts recently. I've seen non-residents passing through Deep Harbour looking around the last two mornings and again this evening. I've called police twice this evening.

There was a theft on Aurora St at the condo bldg just outside our fire gates. Our dogs alerted us but, the cops couldn't get there quickly enough.

Please watch for young 4 black males, approx age 16-20, on bicycles cruising through Deep Harbour and adjoining neighborhoods. The morning trips have been just one "scout" looking things over. This evening's trip was four males on four bikes. They're looking for opportunities to steal anything left unsecured. To my knowledge they haven't broken into any homes or vehicles yet but they have entered unlocked cars and garages that were left open. The same four people have been seen on bikes just before other incidents. The police feel pretty certain they're the perpetrators but they have to catch them in the act or with the goods.

If you see anyone acting suspiciously or anything that doesn't look quite right, please call 

Cambridge Police Dept immediately at 410-228-3333. 

Sgt Hurley asks that we keep phones on us as much as possible and call right away if we see anything suspicious. They're trying hard to catch these kids but, four of them working together and riding bikes are proving difficult to catch. The bikes make thieves quick, quiet and stealthy. They cruise around scouting things to steal then three act as lookouts while the fourth one takes the prize. They can shut it down and be gone the second anyone approaches, be it a resident on foot or a police officer in a car, and they can go places on bikes that cop cars can't.

The easiest way to rid ourselves of this problem is to NOT give them the opportunity. You'll be hearing this a lot until everyone gets in the habit of securing everything and the thieves look for opportunity elsewhere.

Please share this message with as many residents as possible. Owners who rent their units, please be sure your tenants get this information ASAP. We are asking Sentry to send an e-mail blast to all owners and residents.

If we all work together we can solve this problem pretty quickly.

Thank You.

Andy S, President

Deep Harbour Master Association
