The detective department have recently received several reports of "pick-pockets" roaming the streets not only in the Philipsburg area, but also in those areas where tourist frequently visit and where large crowds are gathered. Thus far two suspects involved in pick-pocket cases were arrested and put into custody. The arrests of these suspects were successful due to the fact that in the areas where these acts were committed high quality security cameras are installed. The suspects were easily identified. The Police Department as a security measure recommends encourage business- and home-owners to also have high quality security cameras installed.
