St. Croix: As we celebrate the holiday season, some are not so fortunate. In the last few weeks, burglaries have been committed across St. Croix, causing residents to postpone their celebrations due to the need to replace stolen items and repair damage to their homes. VIPD needs your help. If you see people in your neighborhood that you don’t know, particularly when your neighbors are not home, call 911. Let’s try to curtail or prevent these burglaries. Remember it was your neighbor yesterday; it could be you today.
