Door to Door Salesmen

If you recall my previous post about door to door salesman in Lowell, my story on these guys is done and will appear in tomorrow's paper.

I highly recommend you check it out.

These guys are apparently from a company called Paragon Sales, and other people from this company have been charged with rape after previous incidents in Plymouth, Mass., and Chicago.
One was also arrested for assaulting two police officers in Lowell last year, and already this year one has been charged with vandalizing 15 cars downtown and causing a false fire alarm.

My story will explain all this in further detail, but the moral of the story is that police are very strongly advising people to call officers immediately if a door to door salesman comes to your home and won't show a permit.

To get a permit, you have to undergo a background check by police, and some of these salesmen have been found to have long criminal records in the past, according to police. No one in Lowell has gotten a permit for door to door sales recently, according to the City Clerk's Office.

Police have been watching these guys since this weekend.
