Special Alert - Gang of Burglars Hitting Mid-Atlantic Area Pro Shops

This is a special alert from our colleagues in the Pennsylvania Chapter of NGCOA.  There is a gang of burglars operating in the Mid-Atlantic, so we are recommending vigilance in protecting your assets and operations.

--David Norman, NGCOA Mid-Atlantic

Ladies and Gentlemen – The PGO office is sending this email blast at the request of one of our longtime member club operators.  I watched the videos twice, and those guys on the video are pretty clearly casing the place.  Much like the DGVA charge card rip-offs a few years back, once we put the PGO network in play the crimes stopped.  So please take a few minutes and watch the videos, and be on the lookout.  Please alert our non-mbr area facilities too - these criminals are only in the first week of their activity. Thanks to Rich Hogan for sharing.

Good Morning Greg,

Greg if this is something that you can share I would like to let everyone know to be on the lookout for these guys casing their place or selling equipment.  And if they know of anything they can call  me or the Pennsylvania State Police, Chambersburg PA  Barracks  

On May 28, 2014 at 2:30 am the Whitetail Golf Resort was robbed. We lost $5,000.00 worth of golf clubs, bags and balls.  Wednesday of that week and Thursday Maryland National was robbed.   On Friday the 29^th Olde Scotland Yard Range in Scotland PA just outside of Chambersburg was robbed to the tune of $14,000.00.   Scott Hall from Scotland passed this video clip of three guys that were in his place on Wednesday. He believes they were casing the place.  And all three of the break-ins were very similar.   If it is them the car they were in is believed to be a dark colored Dodge Magnum with dark tinted windows.
