MESA, Wash. — Four men driving around in Franklin County drew the suspicion of law enforcement and community members alike when they went door-to-door asking to inspect people’s roofs on Thursday night.
According to a social media alert from the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office, a resident of Mesa, WA contacted the authorities around 7:40 p.m. PST on October 13, 2022 to make a report. This person cites four men in a dark SUV riding around the neighborhood near Peabody Ave & May Ave, offering roof inspections.
The offer confused the resident since it was already nighttime and their motivations were unclear. To make matters more confusing, they appeared to be visiting houses all across the neighborhood, making the same offer.
