SPPD Update Nov 10-17, 2019

Over the past week Snell Isle had 1 reported vehicle burglary to an unlocked vehicle. This occurred in the 300 blk Bayview Dr NE on Nov 13th. This was reported after I sent the report last week. Considering the location of the Attempt vehicle burglary on Belleair last week I will assume the suspect is going to be the white male from that vehicle burglary which was locked vehicle. There were no other reported property crimes.

I don't know how many people get your warnings, but apparently they are not getting them or don't care. This victim left his wallet and a Rolex watch in his unlocked vehicle. It is mind boggling how careless people are with their property. Donald J. Herring, SPPD

Please always remember to:

  • Lock it or lose it.
  • See something, say something.
Call SPPD immediately at 727-793-7780 if you see something suspicious. Thank you for keeping Snell Isle a very safe and wonderful community.
