Suspicious Characters

Our neighbor at the very top of Risinghill reported that a car with three 20-somethings may have been looking for a house to burglarize.

His ever-vigilante tenant, happened to be walking her dog last week when she noticed a car parked up by the yellow gate leading to the trails. Three 20-something guys were slinking down, obviously not wanting to be seen, but apparently casing his house. The tenant hesitated and then announced boldly, "You guys can wait for the cops to get here or leave now."

They immediately started the car and drove away. The tenant said to them as they passed her, “I have your license number.” She called the police and reported all the details.

The car is a black, late 90’s or early 2000’s Toyota Forerunner. License plate is a yellow New Mexico license plate with number 903-NSR. The driver was white, his two passengers were African-American.

Confronting them was probably risky. People have been shot for less in the greater Pasa/Altadena area in the not-too-distant past.
