Suspicious White Van at Corner of E Smith St & Alvord – Potential Robbery Foiled

A neighbor on E Smith Street reported that he foiled a potential robbery at his home early in the evening of July 23, @ 4:30pm.

The neighbor reported that he was returning home from a business meeting to find a white utility van (- livery) w/ trailer attached (holding many items) at the end of his driveway.

The van contained 2 men (maybe more in the back). The driver (mid forties, common habitus, handsome, blue eyes w/ dark brown salt and pepper hair) spoke to the neighbor when he inquisited. The passenger, larger habitus, looked out of the other window, was silent, wore dark sunglasses).

The driver claimed that they were checking out the neighborhood for a recycle job, but they had been in the  carport. The homeowner demanded that they leave immediately, but was not able to get a license plate number. Police were called. They believe that the two men were possibly canvasing the area.
