Here are the top three stories in Johns Creek today:

1. The Johns Creek Police Department is investigating three incidents of mail being stolen from mailboxes. On Feb. 8, a resident of River Trace Drive reported that her mail was stolen from the mailbox on her front porch. A homeowners association president accessed a neighbor's camera system and saw three vehicles in the area around the time of the theft, then gave the license plate numbers to police. According to the report, the vehicles include a white Toyota Corolla with a tag registered in Norcross, a brown Nissan sedan with a tag registered in Marietta, and a vehicle with a Pennsylvania tag. On Feb. 7, about one mile away at nearby Riverclub Parkway, there were two other reports of stolen mail from mailboxes. (Appen Media)

• The Johns Creek PD warns parents to keep an eye on what their kids are doing online and reminded parents that apps can be renamed by a kid to try to hide it and apps can be hidden. JCPD's tips for parents include opening every app, relying on the App Library, and looking up apps in the App Store. (JCPD via Instagram)
