Citizens: Be On the Look Out

Print

Gallup Police Department are desperately trying to catch the hoodlums who are shooting up cars with pellet guns during the night.

Capt. Rick White said that he believes about 30 vehicle windows and five house windows were shot out over the weekend [June 26] with pellet guns or BB guns and police are asking for the public’s help to catch the perpetrator.

“It’s costing out citizens money to replace [the windows],” White said. “Somebody out there knows whose doing it, they just need to come forward.”

White said that the GPD has neighborhood patrols in tact. And while patrol units are checking neighborhoods in between calls for service, residents need to be looking out for these people. They also need to be looking out for their own property and in and around the neighborhood.

Crimestoppers is offering a reward of up to $1,000 for information on these destructive and pointless crimes. Call (505) 722-6161.

Anyone with information is strongly encouraged to contact the GPD at (505) 863-9365.
