A friend of mine at Mule Bar told me today that he had seen that someone had found my wallet on Front Porch Forum. I would like to offer a reward to this mystery person. Please contact me! Some folks use their local FPF as a form of insurance⦠a safety net when things go awry. Send Vermonters to FrontPorchForum. Wonderful neighbors opened their doors at once and kept them open all night through hours of the interviews, paperwork, and other mundane details of a waking nightmare.
A night that went badly but could have gone far, far worse was made bearable by not going through it alone. Vermonters are the best people in the world. There could have been a long period in a burn unit, and I am writing a Front Porch Forum post, not an obituary, so I am very grateful.
My husband called the police and an officer stopped by to say the usual β that this type of thing has been happening all over the city and they are trying to track down the perpetrator s. The officer also said that he had already responded to another incident up the street.
Nothing taken that I am aware of, however, there was a strange addition of white rice in the front seats. The responding officer was also perplexed by the rice, but did indicate, as we know, that this type of vandalism has been occurring all over Burlington for a while now. Yesterday evening I did locate two BBs inside my vehicle.
Wanted to post to let folks know that this vandalism is still occurring. Car parked on street. Sad to hear someone else went through this! Same thing happened on my street in the Five Sisters neighborhood a few weeks ago. If you have any information about these incidents, please notify the Burlington Police and post on your local FPF so neighbors can be aware. I am using Front Porch Forum to give my neighbors advance notice of a motion that I hope will be discussed and passed at Town Meeting during the new or other business portion.
