Unfortunately, that's not new. My dad is almost 70, and he and his friends used to do that as kids. (Well, not with the help of Google)

I'm sorry to admit that I did it a few times too. It seemed like a harmless thrill when I was 17.

Keep calling the police. If they get enough calls, they will patrol on occasion. If you have children who play outside, mention that when you call. The safety of young children seems to get the attention of the local police fairly quickly.
