Alert--Possible Scam

At 11:42 a.m. on January 16th, a resident of the 1800 block of Oliver reported that a Hispanic male stated that he worked for NIPSCO and would like to come into the house to check the electricity. The subject was approx. 5'7", had a stocky build, very short hair and was wearing a tan jacket.

As the suject had no identification from NIPSCO, the resident called police. Officers advised that the subject had left the area before they arrived.
