Still reporting break-ins here or on lakesidecrimetracker.com?

A friend who is renting in Lower LaFloresta had a break-in yesterday. (I have encouraged her to post here and on lakesidecreimetracker.com but don't know if/when she will, so I wanted to get the word out.)

As I understand it, she was gone from the home but her dog was inside. Burglars broke the lock on sliding glass doors at the back of the house and entered the property. A locked closet (owner's closet) was broken into and gone through; my friend doesn't know if anything was taken from that closet.

Her laptop was taken; numerous items beside the laptop were NOT taken (Kindle, GPS, camera) although a pillow case had been stripped from a pillow and was in the area. Apparently when she got home the burglary was in process and the burglar ran off without all the loot.

The agency from whom she rented the house was contacted and they sent the police to the house.

That's all I know at this time; hopefully my friend will post additional details. I also reported this on lakesidecrimetracker.com. I noticed on lakesidecrimetracker.com that there had been some recent incidences in La Floresta and also this means of entry, breaking the lock on sliding glass doors at the back of the house.

Thanks for the heads up. If this happened to us, I would be posting it everywhere...can't ever have too much information to protect yourselves.

Not gated. Only roving patrols. Easy entrance/exit. Always been like that. Certain areas get hit more than others, but at random.

It's the same reason they rob banks - because that's where the money is.

That is why LA is the bank robbery capital, easy access to getaway routes, same in lower La Floresta and Chapala Haciendas
