Public safety message from Mayor Confalone and East Bangor Police Department

Attention, East Bangor Borough Residents:

We have received reports of opportunistic thieves walking through the borough last night and in the early morning hours, checking for unlocked car doors. Unfortunately, several thefts of unlocked vehicles have occurred.

To help prevent further incidents, we strongly encourage all residents to lock their car doors and remove any valuables from their vehicles. A few extra seconds to secure your vehicle can go a long way in deterring theft.

If you experienced theft, have noticed any suspicious activity or if your property surveillance camera systems have captured any relevant footage, please contact the East Bangor Police Department at 610-599-1005 immediately.

Your vigilance and cooperation are essential in keeping our community safe. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
