With the permission of the family involved, I wanted to let you all know that a home on Mill Valley Lane was broken into yesterday morning {September 12}. It was about 10:30 am when this occured. Thankfully, the next door neighbor happened to be leaving their residence & saw a suspicious car that alerted them. Then they saw the person coming & going from the home...which led them to call the police.
The suspects broke a basement window to enter the home... WVC police & forensics came to collect information that will hopefully lead to the arrests of these people.
I am unsettled by how brazen this crime was & how it was early in the day...just reminds us to always keep an eye out for our homes & our neighbors, too! The neighbor did all the right things:
- Noticed an unfamiliar vehicle in front of the home
- Kept a watchful eye & tried to get a license plate
- Called the police! As neighbor's we can look out for each other!
The suspects drove a black grand am, with front end damage & were described as being in their early 20's.
