@Ann2800 you may should call the nonemergency number for the police. Just let them come over. Â In case it was some local teen they will see the police car at your house, and maybe that will be a deterrent as well.Locks are a must.I have a planter in front of my gate, and it is weighs well over 500 pounds. Â Full of rocks to keep it upright
 And behind it are metal rakes, and shoves, and various other things that would pretty much maim you for life if you jumped over in broad daylight, let alone at night.Both neighbors have dogs that are outside at any given time, day or night.  And most everyone on our street will leave front porch and garage lights on all night.  A well lit area is the cheapest easiest way to prevent crime.
@Fallon: I am just thinking about calling them. The saga continues....I guess they were angry at me for putting on a lock and they kicked a blank in and cracked it half way .....Its really starting to worry me.
