See, this is what I'm talking about. Apparently she did not recognize him. Otherwise, why would she have called 911? I'm dismayed to say that I don't know most my neighbors except the ones to the immediate left and right and across the street. People work, long hours, too. My neighbors directly across the street from me are gone nearly all day and night. I only see them pull in or out of their driveway. I never see their faces. Even my neighbor to the immediate left of me is gone so much that when I saw her, I jokingly said "I thought you had moved!" So if I saw someone trying to force a door open, I'd probably call the police, too, and then probably also take criticism for it. We're told to watch out for our neighbors, neighborhood watches used to be big around here but not so much any more and now I can see why. Just a couple of weeks ago, someone tried to steal concrete furniture from my yard. It was clear that they were trying to lift it over the fence. They apparently didn't realize how heavy it was so they just dropped it in the middle of the yard. Did anyone see anything? Who knows. No one called 911, except me when I got home and discovered that the furniture had been moved.
