[RP TownTalk] suspicious incident

[lisagrob at verizon.net]

Maureen - I live at 4711 Ravenswood Rd. So fairly close but not next door.  But this woman could have been walking around just looking for what ever came to hand. My husband raised the idea that if I had answered the door rather than him (he is much larger & more intimidating) someone might have kicked the door open to commit robbery. Anyways, I just find whole thing disturbing!

Were you able to report your incident to the police?

Also, I have been reading on the Hyattsville HOPE list serve there are some scam artists circulating in Hyattsville asking for money, having hard luck stories, and offering to do work on ppl's houses.
