The River Wards Crime Watch asks you to be on the lookout for a man posing as a representative of the Fishtown Athletic Club collecting money to benefit the organization.

This person is not affiliated with the group and is committing a crime. The Fishtown AC is a well respected group providing a productive outlet for the kids of Fishtown. Their fundraising activities will never include door to door solicitation.

If this man comes to your door, do not confront him, but make note of an exact description of him, send him on his way, and immediately call the police with any information you have and also email the information to [email protected].
