The Mesa Police Dept. would like residents to be aware of a new problem they are experiencing with vacant homes.
With kids out of school & getting extremely creative about finding something to keep busy. It appears when the houses are obviously vacant, they are going in, having parties & damaging the interior of the homes.
Please alert your community's residents that if they see any suspicious people in or around the vacant homes in their neighborhood to call the police at (480) 644-2211. Calling when subjects are still in the home will give police a better chance of catching them, then calling after they have left. Whoever calls should make sure to tell the dispatcher that the house is vacant.
With your help everybody can keep Mesa safe and secure this summer!
