Because of the power outages?
Busy day for you guys….. those flashers were flying!
Something in the water??
Someone said the burglars are working areas where they know the power has been turned off so there are no alarms???
???? Alarm systems have battery backups. Otherwise, they would not be reliable, and we wouldn’t be paying $50 per month. Plus there is always the low-tech, fail-safe of a baseball bat. It works whether the lights are on or not. In fact it works better in semi- darkness.
Hot time in the old town yesterday.
Lil bit, yes!
