Hey Henry,
Its Gary Stewart, my car was broken into last night and numerous things stolen, when I called the state police they said there was a rash of break ins in Fairfax last night.
-
Can you tell me what part of town the break ins were? Were they in the same neighborhood or scattered around?
-
Gary Stewart lives near the school - I don't believe the State Police told him where the break-ins were. Chris Santee has better connections than I do and may be able to get that information as mine comes strictly from input on my forum.
-
Trooper Harrington is handling this and I'm expecting a phone call shortly.
I will post here as soon as I have any info.

Last evening (Wednesday) I was coming home around 11:30pm. I noticed a car pulling over next to Wheesy Way, which is near where I live so I continued on then came back, several teenage boys were getting out of the car and the lights were off. I slowed down to see what they were going to do. They watched me intently as I went by. I came back a few seconds later and they were getting back in the car. Another car was coming, so I kept going again and decided to keep an eye on them for a bit after the car that passed me went by them they decided to leave, but left very slowly down the road toward the village. I was going to ask them what they were doing if they hadn't left.
It was a newer model hatchback/crossover type vehicle. A redish color it looked like it could have been two-toned. I have since forgotten the place number, but would recognize the car if I saw it. There were 3-4 kids. I don't know what they had planned. They did have the car lights off at one point, but I think were spooked by the traffic or something. ??
