MENDOTA – Mendota authorities are reminding citizens to never allow solicitors into your home. A resident was commended by the Mendota Police Department for her actions after a solicitor insisted on meeting with her against her wishes. Police say the encounter that was captured on a home security system shows a solicitor insisting on meeting with the resident after she says she was not interested in speaking to the person. The solicitor claimed to have a permit with the city, but authorities say that’s not the case. The Mendota Police Department reminds citizens that all solicitors are required to register with the City as well as with the police department. Police say make all contact with solicitors through a locked door, camera and demand to see a permit.
Weekday Mornings, 6am-11am
