  1. The last few days — we’ve noticed an older, white van (GMC; Chevrolet) slowly driving up-and-down the street in north Monrovia; it has worn out rear left door, and several rusted dents above the left rear tire - no business marking of any kind. That alone doesn’t amount to anything but we’ve not seen this vehicle in the neighborhood before. It’s just a bit odd.
