St. Croix: Police ask for your help in identifying the person(s) responsible for the rash of burglaries that have plagued the residents of Estate Whim in recent weeks. Please report any unusual or suspicious activities, individuals or vehicles in your area. Be a nosey neighbor, look out for your neighbor’s wellbeing and remember the next house you save from being burglarized might be your own.
