Default Gutter Theft

Just a heads up....seems that yesterday morning around 5:30AM, someone was walking down the backyards between houses in a part of my street and was taking gutter downspouts. Mom-in-law had one large downspout, probably about 8 or 9 feet, ripped from the connectors and taken. A few other houses along the way had other small aluminum gutter parts taken. A neighbor heard the noise and came over, probably causing whomever it was to take off....carrying or dragging an 8 ft downspout. Sheriff just left after taking a report. Not sure who did this, but they were far from quiet while stealing the aluminum.

If your puppy barks, pay attention. Mom said her birds were making a noise, or so she thought. She yelled at them to be quiet. Probably was the thief.
