Mundy Township Police Department

The Police Department wants the community of Mundy Township to know that we are dedicated to keeping our residents informed of current events, community news, and the different ways the department and you the resident can work together in making Mundy Township a safe and inviting community.

BURGLARY ALERT

Through part of 2009, Mundy Township experienced a series of residential burglaries.  Most occur during the day while residents are away at work.  This was a trend throughout Genesee County. 

 

Those committing these home invasions frequently look for homes that are isolated.  The suspects will often knock on the door to determine if anyone is home.  If the resident answers the door, they will ask for directions and leave.  One person recently arrested for a burglary in a neighboring community was posing as a census worker.  If nobody answers the door, they may attempt to enter, often by a rear or side door.

 

If you see suspicious activity in your neighborhood, call 911 to report situation.  It is best to call while the suspicious people and vehicles are still in the area.  Observe the activity and note as much information as possible, such as descriptions of the people and vehicles.  Approaching the people or vehicle can be dangerous and will likely result in them leaving the area, which can hamper efforts by the police to locate and identify possible suspects. 

 

Visit the "Safety Tips" page for more information about what you can do to protect yourself and your property.  Clink on the link at the top of the page. 

 

To view a map of home invasions since August 1st through November 12th, click on the map below.  Green dots indicate forced entries and the red dots indicate entry through an unlocked door.  The map does not include thefts from open garage doors.  As of December 30,2009, no new burglaries of this type houses have been reported since the update on November 12, 2009.   

 

2010 CENSUS

You will probably be seeing information about the 2010 Census.  Be aware that some criminals may use this as an opportunity to gain access to your home or your personal information.  There has been at least one instance in a neighboring community of a burglary posing as a census worker while looking for homes to break into. 

 

The primary method to be used by the Census Bureau will be mailing forms to homes for residents to complete and return.  According to the Census website, census workers will visit homes that did not respond to the mailing.  If someone come to you home claiming to be a census worker, ask to see their credentials.  If you have any doubts about them, do no let them into you home or provide them with information.  Call 911 to report the suspicious activity.

 

For more information about the Census, go the the Census Bureau website www.census.gov/    For specific information about how the Census will be conducted and about workers, go to the "2010 Census" link, then "How It Works" tab.
