Hunters Point Woman Accuses Neighbor of Poisoning her Tree

CCTV show men on property in both cases

The following information is from the Westlake Police Department. 

A Hunters Point Lane woman suspects neighbors of poisoning her backyard cottonwood tree. She asked the Westlake Fire Department, city arborist, and a private tree trimming firm to examine it; none of them could confirm her suspicions. She called Westlake Police after her closed circuit TV system recorded a male in her yard on Aug. 18; the neighbor she thinks is involved denied any involvement with her tree or being in her yard.

A Parma woman with business to conduct at Clemens Road firm found her 2010 Honda Accord damaged at 10:15 a.m. on Aug. 22. The passenger window was broken and a $1300 laptop taken. The company closed circuit TV system showed a black male going back and forth to her vehicle around 9:30 a.m. left in a dark color GMC SUV.
