Through part of 2009, Mundy Township experienced a series of residential burglaries. Most occur during the day while residents are away at work. This was a trend throughout Genesee County.
Those committing these home invasions frequently look for homes that are isolated. The suspects will often knock on the door to determine if anyone is home. If the resident answers the door, they will ask for directions and leave. One person recently arrested for a burglary in a neighboring community was posing as a census worker. If nobody answers the door, they may attempt to enter, often by a rear or side door.
If you see suspicious activity in your neighborhood, call 911 to report situation. It is best to call while the suspicious people and vehicles are still in the area. Observe the activity and note as much information as possible, such as descriptions of the people and vehicles. Approaching the people or vehicle can be dangerous and will likely result in them leaving the area, which can hamper efforts by the police to locate and identify possible suspects.
