Subject: [LeDroitPark] Attempted Home Burglary on 400 Block of U Street NW at 10:30pm on Sunday Night
 
Neighbors, please be aware that a homeowner on the 400 Block of U Street NW found a man attempting to break into his home at approximately 10:30pm on Sunday night. The suspect fled without gaining entry into the home, and the cops were notified immediately and began patrolling the neighborhood. Separately, but not unrelated, for those of you with homes on the 400 Blocks of T and U Streets that back onto our shared alley (where the scooter was stolen last week), please note that there have been several instances in the past week of non-residents walking up into the alley to look over fences, and as I found out this weekend, cutting through yards. As the police reminded me tonight, please be sure to call 911 for all suspicious activity, even if you don't overtly see anyone breaking the law. And as a general rule, someone who is on your property without your permission is breaking the law, so you should call the cops immediately
