Based on recent robbery incidents in Frisco, the Indian community would like to petition for increased patrols and safety measures in the neighborhood from Frisco City Council/Police department.

Through many incidents heard from our friends/family in the Frisco neighborhood in recent past, specifically targeting Indian community, we believe that Indian community being conceived as affluent may be one of many reasons.

The recent incident in Amberdale Ln, Frisco (Village Lake subdivision) which involved breaking through the glass door, tying up husband/wife and demanding jewelry and cash at gunpoint has brought in shivers to many of us living in the neighborhood.

In the light of this horrific robbery we demand the following:

1. Police must start investigations immediately on the house robbed recently and arrest robbers.
2. Increase police patrols in affected areas and communities where Indians/South Asians reside.
3. Frisco City Council to meet with Indian community leaders to address the member's concerns and take measures to avoid these in the future.
4. Police and City Council must provide reassurance and 'a sense of security' by releasing a strong statement.
5. Effective measures to build strong neighborhood partnerships in all areas.

To raise the above petition to the Frisco City Council/Mayor, on behalf of Frisco Indians and South Asian Community we have created this online petition and request all of you to share and support this online petition.

Once we receive sufficient signatures as an acknowledgement to this petition, we will be handing over the same to the Frisco City Council and Frisco Police.

Thanks very much for your help and support.

Kind Regards,

Frisco Indian Community

It appears it's targeted tragedies towards American East Indian origin population. What's short and long term solutions besides keeping your self aware. Thanks.

This is not a one time incident - happens every year across the north Texas area. We urge the Frisco PD to take a leadership role in investigating these gangs ; collaborate across all PD's to analyze such cases and make an impact to deter such activity.

We have been hearing these kind of incidents for quite some time. It seems like nothing is being done about it. We really need this petition to come in effect in order to raise our family in safe environment and feel safe.

We believe that this country is as safe as our home country and yet we see targeted violence against us. Please ensure you take safety measures to stop all these!

We too had a burglary at my house when i was at Houston. The mayor of Houston assigned a Detactive to work on it, as it was over ten's of family. But, the cpos only works for murder investigation. I wish the indian community concerns are addressed.
