Crime Alert: Burglars Break In If Door Knocks Go Unanswered

Annapolis Police have issued a burglary alert to warn residents what to be on the lookout for in their neighborhoods.

Authorities believe that the suspects in recent Annapolis burglaries are knocking on doors to homes and when they don’t receive an answer, are forcing open a front or rear door.

Burglaries have recently been reported on Windwhisper Lane, off of Bay Ridge Avenue in Eastport, and one on McKendree Avenue, police said.

Residents are urged to report any people in a neighborhood that are believed to be door-to-door solicitors or anyone who seems suspicious or out of place in a neighborhood, police say.

Call 410-268-4141 at any time to report this type of activity.
