They're baaaaacccckkkkk.... the notorious “Felony Lane Gang” has recently struck in Clinton Township. On May 22, 2020 "FLG" is suspected of breaking into a car in the parking lot of a local park. The victim's purse, containing checks, identification and prescription medication, was stolen. This "gang" has been around for a few years now and appears to be based in Florida. They travel the entire U.S. and move in and out of areas so quickly they’re difficult to catch. They target vehicles with purses left in plain sight. They will break windows if the vehicle doors are locked, even in crowded areas. Once they have a purse, they specifically look for checks and debit/credit cards. They are well known for altering checks and using stolen ID’s to cash them at local banks. In the past, the Felony Lane Gang has targeted public and private pools, parks, fitness centers and daycare centers...
Please forward this information to your friends and practice these prevention tips:
1. NEVER LEAVE VALUABLES IN PLAIN SIGHT!
2. Always lock vehicle doors.
3. If you’re going to hide your purse in your vehicle, do it before arriving at your location. Professional criminals will monitor activity at their target location. If they see you put your purse in your trunk, you’ve defeated your own efforts.
4. Report suspicious activity immediately by calling 911 or our 24/7 non-emergency dispatch center at (908) 735-7233.
5. If you are a victim of theft, report any lost financial information to your bank immediately. Closing stolen/compromised accounts quickly is the best way to prevent additional loss.
