Natomas Auto Burglaries
I have a received several recent inquiries about auto burglaries. Between 2/1/09 and 2/19/09 there have been 49 report vehicles burglarized in all of Natomas. This number is probably lower then actual burglaries because all of the reports have probably not made it through the computer system or beenreported yet. In January during this same time frame there were 39 auto burglaries.
So, what does this mean.....we are seeing an increase recently in vehicle burglaries (in addition to other property crimes such as residential burglaries). Please remember to keep an eye out in your neighborhood for suspicious activity and call it in. I have listed a few facts about the recent auto burglaries in Natomas. I have also attached a map of these crimes so you can see where they are occurring.
* 31 have occurred in N. Natomas
* 15 have occurred in S. Natomas
* 3 have occurred in Gardenland/Northgate
* Most frequent day they occur is Sunday (18)
* Second most frequent day has been Tuesday (9)
* Most occur while it is dark
Reminders:
* Keep valuables out of sight in your car (ie keep in trunk, glove box, etc.)
* Park in well lit locations
* Park in your garage if possible.
* Call in suspicious people in your neighborhood that might be casing homes or cars.
* Keep your porch light, side light or any light on or on motion detector.
