A report of recent burglaries
06/28/2013 7:46 AM by John M
FYI- several of burglaries on 28th and clay in the last few days. They broke into a car on Clay St and stole a few hundred $s worth of stuff yesterday on Wed. night and broke into a house on 400 block of 28th last night. Stole jewelry and other items. Not sure if they are related but the timing does seem suspect.
The RPD’s Daily Crime Report for 6/26-27 has the following:
BURGLARY
6/26/13 6:40 a.m. –12:30 p.m.
400 block of North 28th Street
An unknown person(s) broke into the residence and stole two computers and jewelry.
TAGGED: crime
The thieves broke into our car last night. Waiting for the police to arrive to fill out a report. The only way the police are going to do anything is if all of the victims file reports, which will highlight the pattern that has developed in the area.
My car was broken into the week before last, but nothing was taken, but I still reported it — even if nothing is taken, no one should be breaking in.
A few nights later, I saw a guy checking car doors and truck beds as he rolled past on his bike, and called again.
It was worth the time spent reporting everything if the break-ins decrease!
