It's always a good idea to take the car keys with you, 4/26/10 On April 26, a worker's truck was stolen from a Peardale Drive construction site. The clever and nimble-fingered thief managed to open the unlocked door and turn the key that had been left in the ignition before driving off in the truck. A suspect has been contacted.
Greedy auto burglar, 4/27/10 A student parked his car in the Acalanes lot and mistakenly assumed it would be fine until he returned. Upon returning to his vehicle, the victim discovered an unknown suspect had entered his car by way of a rear door and stolen a number of items. Missing are: a wallet from the front door pocket, a garage remote and a Bluetooth speaker from the visor and an amplifier and speaker from the trunk. The victim's ATM card was used in Martinez and Pittsburg. Missing items are valued at $600. We hope the owner changes the garage door code since the obnoxious burglar has his address.
Credit card fraud, 4/27/10 A Stow Lane victim called Lafayette Police to report her credit card information had been used to make a $531.56 purchase at a Target in Redwood City. It is not known what items were purchased.
Smash and Grab, 4/30/10 A victim parked her car on the street in front of Happy Valley School. Unfortunately, she left her purse under the passenger seat instead of taking it with her. To her surprise, she returned to find her front passenger window smashed and her purse gone.
