"Our Detective Division is diligently working on this investigation ...," Lower Providence police stated in a Facebook post.

Anyone with information was asked to contact Detective Scott Dreibelbis at 610-539-5901.

Police asked residents to be vigilant and to call 911 if they observe any suspicious activity.

Officials reminded residents to park their vehicles in well-lit areas or a garage, if possible, to lock doors, and to consider installing a video surveillance system.
