Crime alert: Mendenhall

From Lauren Harkins:

I have heard about a white van on Mendenhall, south of Walnut Grove. This was at night, so they were not sure if it had sticker marks on it. My friends were walking and they live on Mendenhall near the curve. As they got closer to their house, a white van with a older BM was driving and a skinny young WF drove slowly past their home. They took a left onto Lake Dr. and the woman got out. She started walking to gate towards the house. She saw my friends walking towards her and she pulled out her cell phone and the van sped towards her and she jumped in and quickly drove off. They called the police. They had gotten the license tag #, but of course it was not registered to a white van. The officer said that they may have been casing the house and that the woman was probably planning to get in the home through the doggie door. A couple of days before, their alarm went off at 3 am. It makes you wonder if they had been testing ways to get into the house.
