To Strathcona Block Watches:
More information from the neighbour in yesterday's B&E.
"Calling all cars. Yesterday at 3pm approx. I heard from my downstairs office somebody "sounding out" my house. Knocking lightly on the front door and windows. Then I heard someone going between my house and my neighbours on 800 East Georgia. We share a locked iron gate. A tall one that "keys in "and "keys out." When I went to investigate the gate lay open.(?) I had locked it not 30 minutes prior. I was standing in the front yard when I heard the neighbour's alarm sounding and strange noises coming from inside. I put two and two together and proceeded back into the yard armed with a 1X6 board. Half way to the back the perp appeared with my neighbours iMac under his arm. He saw me ,dropped the computer (on the concrete--asshole) and hightailed it for the fence. I managed to drag him down and scuffled with him. I also called him a lot of bad names.
He got away and beat it out to the front again and ran away down Georgia towards Hawks. He was quite well dressed. New dark blue ball cap with white piping, new black hoodie, clean jeans and clean white shoes. He was caucasian, slightly built and had reddish/blond hair about 5" 6". I called 911. The cops arrived.
Keep your eyes out for this guy."
