CMPD is alerting people who live in the Dilworth area of Charlotte about several recent break-ins in the area. Police say the burglars often strike as people are getting ready for work. Officers said the burglars have unscrewed security lights outside homes to stay unseen.
Drug deals is another problem in the Dilworth area. Residents say they have seen people selling drugs on the streets. A bulletin sent out by Dilworth's Neighborhood Association says one car stops, a second pulls up and someone gets into the first car. Once the transaction ends, both cars drive off.
Homeowners are asked to do the following: - Keep an eye on the streets and report all suspicious activity. - Always carry a cell phone if out walking. - If you have an alarm- remember to set it before you leave your residence.

I am in Sedgefield. I am home often now, since I started my own business. Every day I now see someone doing a car transfer in front of my house. The 2 cars stop and the guy goes from one car to the next one (behind him) and they drive down the road. They stop down the road a bit. I did not think too much of this the first few times I witnessed it... Now I see it almost every day here and I saw this article and it clicked. I am NOT happy with this stuff going on around here. I also noticed that there is NO community watch here in sedgefield. WHY? I am interested in it. I think it would HELP around here. I am a willing guy to get it going.

I used to live over there and there is a neighborhood watch. Just go to one of the meetings over at the Salvation Army church.
