We received the email chains involving suspicious vehicles in and around the bus stops in mainly the 413 and 415 beat areas. The newest email was about a silver van with the male with a Jamaican accent as seen in the Lake Fjord area. That somehow got tied together with the white Ford Taurus that had been sent to us the previous month in Meadow Chase. The driver of the Ford Taurus was stopped and dealt with the same week that we received the email through PENS about it. He has been identified and dealt with accordingly. I need to clarify that we have no reason to believe that these two vehicles are in any way connected. No police report was filed on the silver van nor did anyone call 9-1-1 at the time of occurrence. Below is the email on the Silver Van. The area had been patrolled heavily and we have had no further reports about it since. Again, I need to stress calling 9-1-1 when something like this occurs to get a beat car out to investigate immediately and get the incident reported.

Here is the email;
