Here is a report about a reported series garage burglaries in North Natomas -- and some crime prevention tips -- from Sacramento Police Capt. Daniel Hahn to Robslist, a listserv about crime in Natomas:
Possible Garage Burglary Activity in N. NatomasThere have been a lot of developments in regard to possible garage burglaries and there have also been several comments on Robs List about the same issue. I put on the daily last week about a burglary where someone used a garage door opener or some other device to open the garage door on Natomas Blvd.
There has been at least 4 such burglaries or suspicious circumstances between 9/26/08 and 10/06/08 on the following streets: Innovator, Natomas Blvd. (mentioned in previous email daily), Edgemar Ct., and Lyman Cr. Two of these occurred around 1:00 am, 1 around noon, and one between 9pm and 6 am. Officers Tavelli and Bell were working this issue the other night and ran into a Paladin Security Officer who also advised about suspicious circumstances on Sea Glen Wy, Adamstowne Wy, Minden Wy, and Alterra Wy. These were all garage activation alarms that Paladin was called to and were checked and found to be o.k...
With this in mind - please continue to utilize Paladin if you live in their area, but also call the police - especially in light of this growing issue. We didn't know about any of these additional locations and it will help us to find out who is doing this....Also, be sure to close your garage door when leaving and if you will be gone for a day or more (ie vacation) make sure you lock your garage so even a garage door opener can't open it.
