Opportunist Burglary Attempt in Inverness Forest


Abdol Rahnavard of 10801 Deborah Drive told me about an attempted car burglary near his house earlier this week. Abdol's son was awakened in the early morning hours by sounds in the parking lot. He looked out his window and saw a group of young men trying car doors to see if any were unlocked. He awoke his father and they called the police.

The young men apparently arrived in a car that they left running nearby. Abdol and his son noted the license plate. The young men noted they were being observed and left. When the police arrived and called in the license plate number they discovered that the would-be burglars lived a few blocks away and went after them.

Thanks to the vigilance and quick wits of Abdol and his son the burglars were unsuccessful and likely had an unpleasant interview with the police.

Lessons learned:

1. Lock your car so that opportunist burglars can't have easy access to your property

2. Would-be burglars should rethink their career path if they are dumb enough to go off on a noisy crime spree in a car with its license plate clearly visible.
