Residential Burglary Not Just a Daytime Problem


The holiday season traditionally brings more than good cheer - it brings an increase in property crime as well. Residential burglary along the foothill corridor is displayed on this screenshot of our CrimeMapping platform. You can see residential burglary noted from Pasadena to Monrovia in this shot, a good number of crimes occurring near the freeway area. While many of the residential burglary reports indicate daytime hours of occurrence, several of the Arcadia crimes have occurred in the early evening hours through about 8:00 p.m.

Please take a look at our recent APD Blog post on Burglary Prevention at Home for tips and additional information. And, as always, please be our eyes and ears in your neighborhoods. The Department has deployed additional officers specifically targeting residential burglary intervention, both in marked and unmarked units, but you know your neighborhood best. If you See Something, Say Something!
