Somebody Doesn't Like Attention

Here's of my signs being taken down today.  Clearly a different person, probably a friend of our thief.

Update - Leads and Sightings

*** If you're new to this site, please scroll down to see the videos of the suspect and pictures and descriptions of items stolen. ***


It was a very busy weekend for this website and our very helpful neighbors.  On Saturday, I put up more signs and talked to several more people in our area. 

I want to thank all of you who have responded so far, with information or just encouragement.  Please, keep it coming!  I'm compiling everything I've gotten so far, including other similar crimes and sightings of the suspect in the video.

Also, I encourage all of my neighbors to report all crimes, no matter how small, to the Sheriff's Department.  You can report most petty crimes online here.

To report a crime by telephone, call the Sheriff's Department non-emergency number: 916-874-5115.  To report a crime in progress, call 911.

I received enough information over the weekend that I'll be contacting the Sheriff's Department today.  I don't want to say too much here, but I'm excited to give it all to law enforcement.  This recent story makes me very hopeful.  I'll let you all know how it goes!

Signs Are Up!

I've started posting signs around the neighborhood to direct people to this site.  Hoping somebody can identify the punk from our neighborhood who has been breaking into our cars.

This crime took place on Ione Street on Saturday, August 14th.

If you know who this is, please contact us.  You can email kingstv@gmail.com or call me at (916) 585-4786.  If you prefer, you can contact the Sacramento Sheriff's Department at (916) 874-5115.  If you want to remain completely anonymous, just leave a comment here.

Recognize these items?

The drums that were stolen look like this:

Also, he dropped a can of pepper spray that I guess was probably stolen from one of the other cars in the neighborhood.  Here it is:

And here it is out of the case:

If you recognzie either of these items, please contact me via email at kingstv@gmail.com or by phone at (916) 585-4786.

Stolen from the same car the week before was a Massage Envy gift card.  It looks similiar to this one:

This is a hammer that was thrown through the window of my truck a couple of years ago.

I'm going to use it to post signs in the neighborhood to catch this punk!

Daytime Burglary

The local bandit came back, this time during daylight!  The whole crime is caught on video again.  Again, he came down Ione Street from the direction of Maryal.  Actually, from the neighbor's driveway.  He left southbound on Eastern Avenue.

He was barefoot.  He's tall, teenaged, with moppy brown hair wearing shorts and a flannel shirt.  This time, he stole a set of bongo drums from the trunk.

If you recognize this kid, please contact me via email (kingstv@gmail.com) or telephone (916.585.4786).  You can leave also leave a comment on this blog.  It can even be anonymous.

Night Visit

Our neighborhood thief paid us a visit late Saturday night (4:00am 8/14/10).  As you can see in the video, he looks around the car for a minute, unconcerned about the dome light and the fact he's right in our driveway.  We couldn't figure out anything that was stolen during this visit.

It looks like he's either wearing flip flops or is completely barefoot.
