LaPorte Police are warning residents about a possible door-to-door scammer.
Mickey Stisher, LaPorte High School music director, contacted police May 29, 2013, to tell them of rumors that an alleged “music student” is going door to door to solicit money for a band trip to Florida. Stisher said there is no ongoing solicitation through LPHS, nor is there a planned trip to Florida in the near future.
Police recommend that, as always, residents verify any solicitations with the organization the solicitor claims to be affiliated with. If you want to report a possible scam, call LaPorte Police’s non-emergency number, 362-9446, or LaPorte County Sheriff’s Office non-emergency number, 326-7700.
