Advisory

Unknown subjects posing as Water Department employees on Green Bay's eastside.

We received two complaints from Green Bay residents regarding unknown males posing as employees with the water department and trying to get in their homes. These two separate incidents happened in the 1400 blocks of Day St. and Farlin Ave.

One of the suspects is described as a male, white, approximately 50 years old, wearing a green Army style clothing and gave the name of “Danny O’Brien”. The other suspect stood outside as a look out and there is no description available for him.

The Green Bay Police Department spoke with Water Department personnel who said that they do not have an employee with the above name. They also advised that their employees will be dressed in blue uniform pants (no blue jeans) and a dark blue top with their department logo on it. Please see the attachment for a photo of their logo. They also advised that they normally schedule all of their appointments but have some unplanned stops but those are for properties they’ve sent out letters to but haven’t received a response from.

We are advising the public that if they are ever unsure of the identity of someone at their door and they are concerned about the person, to not hesitate and call police. We would rather they call us and let us investigate the problem.

If you have any information regarding these incidents, please contact the Green Bay Police department at 448-3200. If you prefer, you can remain anonymous by contacting Crime Stoppers at (920) 432-STOP, on the web at www.432stop.com, or by texting GBTIP plus your message to 274637 (CRIMES).
