BELLEVILLE – A string of suspicious-persons incidents has Belleville Police urging the public to exercise caution while out and about in the city.
The latest one involved a woman who was driving and noticed she was being followed by a man in a newer-model Dodge Caravan.
All residents should be aware of their surroundings while driving and walking on city streets, said Det.-Sgt. Jeremy Ashley.
Under the Highway Traffic Act, it is legal for drivers to call 911 on their phone while behind the wheel, he added.
