Lock it up

    Tusday night’s community meeting at the 14th Police District yielded one main piece of advice for residents: lock your cars.

     

    Lt. Mark Overwise said nearly half of the past month’s 26 auto break-ins in PSA 3 were the result of unlocked doors. Police Service Area 3 covers Allens Lane and Queen Lane from Germantown Avenue to the boundary of Wayne Avenue / Walnut Lane / the Wissahickon Creek.
