WEST MARLBOROUGH: State police report on activity

Lieut. Rich D'Ambrosio, the Avondale station commander for the Pennsylvania State Police, attended the West Marlborough Township supervisors meeting on Dec. 1, as he does every quarter, to give an update on the state police activity in the township. He said there had been a total of 60 incidents in the township in September, October, and November, exactly the same as in the same period in 2014. There was not a single criminal incident, he said, and of the 14 car crashes only four were serious.
He suggested that given the increasing popularity of online shopping, residents ask delivery-people to drop off packages around back so they're not visible to potential thieves driving by. He also advised against leaving Christmas tips in the mailbox for postal employees: "Just run it out to them," he suggested. He also encouraged residents to call police if they see anything unusual going on in their neighborhoods. "You know what cars are supposed to be there," he said.
In other business at the township meeting, the township engineer reported that two zoning permits had been issued in November: one for a 20-by-30-foot pole barn at the Dupreys' farm on Wilson Road and one for a 16-by-10-foot run-in shed at the Myers' farm on Newark Road.
