7/10/2018 – FTC Warning: While plenty of successful relationships begin online, scammers also use online dating sites, apps, and chat rooms to trick you into sending them money. These imposters create fake profiles to build online relationships, and eventually convince people to send money in the name of love. Some even make wedding plans before disappearing with the money. It’s a big problem: reports to the FBI about online romance scams tripled between 2012 and 2016, and imposter scams were among the top reports to the Federal Trade Commission for both the general population and the military community.
5/28/2018 – A Villa Park resident reported the following: LARCENY / CAR RANSACKED right on house driveway at the corner of MESA DR/LOMA on 5/28/18 (early hours of 5/29/18). All personal items were taken from the vehicle: black leather Chanel bag, wallet with Driver’s Lic. & 2 credit cards, a large black Asics gym bag with gym attires, and 2 cross-training shoes, one has bright orange sole by Asics and the other is a green pair, 4 bottled water (12 oz, 32 oz and 64 oz), Trader Joe’s large straw bag and other grocery bags, a yellow full size conditioner/shampoo & body wash, razor, facial moisturizer bag.
5/8/2018 – At approximately 3:10 pm in Villa Park on the 19400 block of Mesa Dr. reports of shots fired and a deceased 56 year old male (suicide).
