It appears nobody wants to be a burglar when it’s 20 degrees out and very easy to track your footsteps in the snow.
After the spate of burglaries in recent weeks, crime took a holiday beginning Monday, Nov. 22, with the first snow storm of the year.
Since our last report, a few burglaries and auto break-ins have popped up on the city’s crime map.
A car was broken into in the 50o block of Northeast 97th Street. But that happened on Friday, Nov. 26 – after the snow melted.
And a car was stolen on Thursday, Thanksgiving Day, from the vicinity of Roosevelt Way Northeast and Northeast 88th Street. (The police report is lacking a better address.)
Before the storm the picture is a little different, but so many reports are lacking addresses that it’s a little hard to pin down. We do know a car was stolen on Thursday, Nov. 18, from the 2400 block of Northeast 85th Street. Its loss wasn’t reported until the following Tuesday, Nov. 22.
Okay, you beat me to this post. But I was thinking ahead and got a shot of an ADT sign in the snow. Feel free to use and link back if you’d like, Mike!
