Break-ins continue in the Lower Macungie area, mostly involving cars with open door , as evidenced by the most recent incident reports released by state police at Fogelsville.
Three Aster Road residents reported break-ins to their unlocked vehicles overnight June 8, police said. Melissa Marlene Silva of 1892 Aster Road and Michelle Reichard-Huff of 1868 Aster Road said personal information and a GPS were taken, worth a total of $110. A GPS and Canon Rebel digital camera were taken from the address of 1876 Aster Road. No value was given.
For a change of pace, another thief decided to take the whole vehicle instead of settling for its contents. Donna Miller of 5279 Indian Creek Road reported that someone drove a vehicle onto her property, hooked up her 18-foot enclosed trailer and drove it away between 10 p.m. June 2 and 3 p.m. June 3, police said. No value or further description of the trailer was given.

700 potential new homes on 50 acres (this is city density folks!) on what is now farmland. We have a nice arrangement now where we "rent" state police coverage. If this potential new development is allowed to happen we WILL need a police station, in addition to a second fire station. Lower Macungie Township has a pleasant rural vibe to it now. (along with ZERO property taxes) But as evidenced by the facts in this article "break-ins continue in Lower Macungie" that pleasant tone is changing as a result of sprawling growth and a lack of police services. What kind of Lower Macungie Township do you want to live in? We're at a crossroads over the next 5 years. We reign in the sprawl and remain what we are, or we fundamentally change forever. We're on a course that sacrifices the rural tone of our community for the benefit of 1 wealthy landowner while bringing on the inevitable tax burden, infrastructure and of course crime of an area that is taking on the population of a city without the infrastructure of a city.
