Residents gather to talk crime prevention Locals came together last week at a park in Glass House Mountains for a crime and policing community barbeque and discussion. The event was an initiative of Glass House Mountains residents Roger and Lea Garner following the traumatic home invasion they experienced recently. In March, the couple were awoken by four armed and hooded home invaders demanding gold and money. The vicious thugs assaulted Roger and ransacked the house before making off. Inquiries are continuing but no arrests have yet been made. The community gathering to talk about crime prevention was hosted by Andrew Powell, the Member for Glass House. Mr Powell explained that the purpose of the event was to gather community members who may be interested in resurrecting the Glass House section of the Glasshouse Country Neighbourhood Watch (which operates out of Beerwah). “It was fantastic to see so many members of the community join the Garners and me for our community crime barbeque,” Mr Powell said. “And, excitingly, quite a few immediately put their hand up to join the Glasshouse Country Neighbourhood Watch. “I will continue to press the state government for more police but it’s great to see the community taking steps to increase and improve their awareness of crime prevention.
