Announcements    

*******************  March 19, 2011  ******************

The Shutesbury Police Department is advising residents of a rash of house breaks
which have recently been occurring in Amherst and Pelham. 

The houses which were entered were all unlocked.  The breaks in Pelham occurred
on North Valley Rd and Buffam Rd.  One took place between 8:30pm and 9:30pm
the other around 1:30am.

 

The Shutesbury Police Department is continuing to remind residents to lock their
homes and vehicles.  Remove valuable items such as computers, GPS devices,
and music players from your vehicle overnight.

 

The simple act of leaving outside lights on or installing motion activated exterior lighting
can be an inexpensive and effective deterrent.  If you will be away from your home for
an extended period of time you may submit a "Residence Check" form, available on this
web site, or requests can also be made directly to the officer on duty or through our
dispatch center.

 

Please contact our 24-hour dispatch center at 413-625-8200 IMMEDIATELY if you
witness any suspicious vehicles, people, or activity in your neighborhood.
If the situation is an emergency please call 911.
