A note from Coplay Crime Watch: Be aware of any unfamiliar car driving around your neighborhood slowly as if its occupants are looking for someone or something. Last week, a suspicious vehicle was observed by a resident who called the Lehigh County nonemergency number at 610-437-5252. The car was, in fact, suspicious, and the call required police intervention.
