Home Break-in
Last evening around 6:45 my husband and I observed a "crime scene" sheriff's vehicle in front of the home on the north side of the street at the entrance to Barrineau Villas in Fernandina. Later in the evening, neighbors told us that the residents of that home had been away for 7-10 days, and upon returning home, had discovered that their home had been burglarized. This makes two burglaries in Fernandina in the past two weeks, with two others only a few months ago. That's four burglaries within 1/4 mile of our house in less than a year! While we know that all communities have crime, we've never lived anywhere in which crime was as high as it is here.
