Dumpster diving on Nevada Avenue

Neighbor Liz Blair reports that someone rifled through her garbage this morning:
[F]or the second time in the last 6 months there was a guy in the alley this morning behind my house in the 4900 block of Nevada going through the recycle and trash curbys. All I saw him take was cans but it makes me wonder what his deal is especially with all the talk about identity theft these days. He was a Caucasian guy wearing a black bicycle helmet and a green t-shirt and once he saw that I had noticed him he left my trash and recycle receptacles and moved on up the alley. Just an FYI but it kind of gave me the creeps.
Please be on the lookout for suspicious behavior in the neighborhood, especially if you live near this location. If you do see something, please report it to the Metro Police Department at (615) 862-8600. Reporting incidents such as these helps the police determine future enforcement staffing for our neighborhood.
