Boston does not have a Water Disaster Department

District D-14 is trying to get the word out, after an elderly couple in Allston/Brighton let in a guy wearing a "Water Disaster Department" on March 27. While they were down in the basement "testing" the washing machine, an accomplice went through their house looking for money - and managed to pry open a safe.

D-14 reports another Brighton homeowner was robbed in a similar fashion the same day by three guys who claimed they were from the Water Department and had to check his basement for flooding.
