Suspicious Activity on S Park Avenue, 7/11/2009
Notes from a VERY Concerned Neighbor on S Park Avenue...
5805 S Park Ave
Vehicle plate# 724-UNW, Chevy Tahoe, taupe in color. Parked in front of 5805 late last night around 11 pm. This morning at about 8:30 am it pulled up again, a short, white male in 20’s with a white doo rag, sunglasses, tan shirt and orange/red shorts got out, hopped into a new shiny black small car, sped around the 59th street circle then up 59th towards pacific. A 1970-80’s primed car plate #970-XRD pulled up, parked and the driver, white, 20’s, male waited in the car with the Tahoe driver, white, male, 20’s brown hair, joining the primer car. Then the guy with the doo rag walked back from wherever the black car took him, got into the Tahoe with the Tahoe driver getting back into the driver seat. A gold car plate# 041-UUV came flying up behind the parked Tahoe honking insistently. The driver was a dark blonde, woman, 20’s and a passenger woman, light black, 20’s. The blonde jumped out of her car, went up to the driver side of the Tahoe, reached in and grabbed something and went back to her car. The Tahoe driver jumped out and ran back to the gold car. Then went back to the Tahoe, told the passenger to get out, got into the back seat of the gold car. I at this point came out, took down the license plate numbers. The Tahoe driver told me there wasn’t a problem and I told yes there was. That this whole scenario is not acceptable on this street. This is not the place to do whatever they are doing. The doo rag guy walked towards Safeway with his football, the gold car drove off with the women and the Tahoe driver and the 1970’s car took off. The Tahoe still sits sloppily parked the wrong way in front of 5805. I think a ticket for parking the wrong way would be great!
So, my thoughts are:
1. The drug dealers came to pick up the buyers.
2. Drove somewhere up into the neighborhood where the drug house must be.
3. The buyer then walks back to where their vehicles are left.4. The Tahoe driver may be the son of the new owner of 5805.
We need to keep track of these types of situations and I am going to see if I can find where the black car is located (at what house up 59th somewhere maybe).Share as you wish. This new activity needs to be squashed promptly!
