Thanks for caring enough to trim an overgrown tree to enhance a neighbor’s view! Prowler Alert! On May 4th there was another car prowler caught on video entering parked cars in a driveway on Evergreen. The thief was traveling on foot with a grocery bag. He entered an unlocked car looking for easy-to-grab valuables. This incident has been reported to the Bellevue Police. Please be sure to LOCK the doors of all your vehicles parked outside and install hidden cameras wherever possible.
