A woman on Regency Court called police and said she was concerned about multiple things happening around her condo. She reported neighbors banging on the wall, pulling into her driveway to turn around, and parking a bicycle for a short time in front of her garage. She was most concerned that people would point at her home and drive by frequently. She believes that this is intentional on the part of the neighbors. Police explained that was possible but it was also possible that it was all just normal frustrations of living in close proximity to other people. She admitted that was possible. She will continue to document the items and call police if it becomes threatening. She later called back to add she believes someone used a "signal jammer" to disrupt her Internet that morning.
