Most recent information is at the top of the page.

 

It is very alarming that a young man was victim of a homicide in Highland Creek.  The investigation is ongoing and police have indicated that they have some good information.  Please remember that if you witness suspicious behaviour at any time, whether it is ongoing or just once in a while, please call the police radio room at 416-808-2222 and pass along the information.  It is our responsibility as community members to work in partnership with the police in keeping our neighbourhood safe.

(Webmaster:  To parents, do you know why and where they are going when your teens leave your home late at night?)

Dear Residents,

As of January 16, 2006 we are pleased to announce that Toronto Police Service, 43 Division is up and running.  I hope that you are seeing more visible presence of the police along Ellesmere and Kingston Road.  There are more police cruisers out in our immediate vicinity and this will be a good thing for everyone. 

There are a several incidents to report to you:

1. On January 22^nd at 9:30 p.m. there was a robbery attempt at the ATM at Old Kingston Road and Morrish.  The victim was assaulted and the suspect attempted to grab his wallet.  Nothing was obtained.  Suspect is described as male, black 20-25 years, 5’6”, 150 lbs. medium build, beige coat with hood.
2. On February 3^rd at 11:20 p.m. there was a robbery on Military Trail.  The victim was walking home when a group of suspects stopped their car and robbed him of his Ipod.  Vehicle is described as 4 door red vehicle, may be a Honda Civic.  No suspect descriptions.
3. On February 5^th at 7:15 p.m. there was a break and enter on Lavery Trail.  The alarm company alerted police to the break-in.  Suspects forced a basement side window and stole jewelry.  No suspects identified.

Please do not use ATM’s at night. Your safety is most important and it is better during the daylight hours.

We are seeing a number of incidents of garage and shed break-ins in south Scarborough.  Please remember to lock your garage doors and also lock your vehicles.  Valuable sports equipment should be kept indoors.  If you see a crime in progress or highly suspicious activity, call 911.  Non-emergency calls can be made to 416-808-2222.

Dear Residents,  

 I am attaching the Highland Creek Neighbourhood Watch Crime Report for June 1^st to October 30^th.

 Please remember to secure your doors and windows whenever you are leaving your home.  Timers and motion sensor outdoor lighting are a helpful deterrent to crime, especially when darkness comes in the early evening. 

You may forward this email to your neighbours.  If they would like to receive these bulletins, ask them to email me directly.

Please remember to be aware of suspicious activity in the neighbourhood and if you see something suspicious, call police at 416-808-2222.  If a crime is in progress, call 911.  Let’s keep our community safe.

You may forward this email to your neighbours.  If they would like to receive these bulletins, have them email me directly.
