Police Log Oct. 2: Theft in Pennsbury; scam in Kennett

PSP Logo• State police from Troop J, Avondale barracks, are investigating a theft on Fairville Road Pennsbury Township. Sometime between 2 p.m. on Sept. 22 and 6:15 p.m. on Sept. 23, someone cut a chain gate and entered the property at 1698 Fairville Road. The unknown suspect then stole a Sno-Way snowplow, a steel utility trailer, ladder and various hand tools from the driveway. Anyone with information is asked to call the Avondale barracks at 610-268-2022.

• Kennett Square Borough Police want to alert area residents to the continuation of a prevalent telephone scam. Police said a resident reported receiving a call in September from a subject who stated that a relative of the resident was in trouble and needed money right away. Upon further questioning by the resident, the caller hung up. In many cases, however, the callers succeed in persuading victims, often grandparents, to wire substantial sums of money. Such requests are usually fraudulent, police said, urging residents to exercise caution.
