I wanted to report that I have observed three individuals casing the cars in my neighborhood. Sunday night someone got into my car and ran down the battery despite my having tried to lock it . They left drink straws in the car. I have observed two individuals on bikes wearing hoodies working the cars at the Grant street inn. They come out and case the neighborhood typically between two and five and wake me up. I have observed them at least twice. This morning an older person perhaps sixty five white hair combed back blue “beater” t shirt and shorts was casing the cars on Lincoln Street. I left my car for two seconds to let my dog in and he was looking in mine. I saw him proceed down the street, not the sidewalk, and approach a car parked near the Presbyterian church. It looked to me as if it was either a police car or the community service officer suv from the color. It was the reason I decided to make this report. It’s one thing to be casing for money. It’s quite another to be interested in the contents of a police car. Obviously you would know if you had one there after nine this morning.

A boat, a trailer filled with appliances, lawn equipment, etc., has been parked across the yard all weekend. They've had this issue numerous times before with vehicles and made an improvement to the driveway size, but vehicles are still parked on the lawn.

Plants along sidewalk have grown out enough to impede pedestrians, and they keep growing. Could be responsibility of 713 E. Cottage Grove, or maybe both.

On June 4th I saw a fawn with a doe (not uncommon), but the doe had a severe gash on her underside. Flesh was hanging down and I could see her insides. The both walked away. Over the next several days, I saw an lone fawn, but no doe would ever emerge to be with it. Now, for the past 3 days, this fawn has been laying against the house at 2205 East Laurelwood Drive, about 15 feet off the side walk (not very protected). I've lived in the area for 19 years and have seen hundreds of does with fawns, often separated, but this definitely seems different.
