A Police K-9 was deployed to apprehend the suspect before she could enter a second residence.

Case Number: 19-0909002

 

NOTE:  Between 9/6/19 – 9/9/19, 33 automobile burglaries occurred, primarily along Lawrence Expressway, Stevens Creek Boulevard and Highway 101. Combatting automobile burglaries is a priority for the Santa Clara Police Department.

Suspects frequently look for bags (e.g. purse, laptop bag, backpacks, gym duffle, luggage) that may contain electronics or other valuables. Criminals also target rental vehicles. The suspects will usually shatter a window to reach inside and grab items in plain view. An auto burglary only takes a few seconds to commit. You can help by:

  • Parking in well-lit areas
  • Always locking your vehicle
  • Not leaving ANY valuables (e.g. loose change, GPS, gym bag, purse/wallet, charging cords, garage remote, or sunglasses) in your vehicle or in your trunk. Suspects have been known to break windows, fold the back seat, and access trunks
  • Reporting suspicious activity by calling 408-615-5580. In-progress incidents should be reported by calling 9-1-1. Do NOT confront suspects. Instead, be a good witness.

Together, we can reduce your chances of becoming a victim.
