Less than a month ago, on November 15, 2006, a Chinese restaurant delivery man was robbed at gunpoint by 2 black male teens on Cross Point Circle. One of the teens had a rifle. The suspects left in a beige Toyota van.

An acquaintance of mine lived in the Cross Creek Apartments until October when her door was kicked in when she was at work. The burglars ransacked her apartment and took her jewelry and a few small items. It looks like the Cross Creek Apartment complex has some serious crime issues!
