Six bikes were stolen. Two were stolen in a residential burglary when a garage was accidentally left open overnight. One was stolen from a porch, one had a cable lock cut from a bike rack, and one case reported online did not include how it was stolen. In the last case, the victim left the bike unsecured on a bike rack. The theft was reported quickly, and the suspect was caught on security camera. He was located and arrested later, and the bike was recovered.

Thirteen vehicle prowls reported this week. In one case, a witness reported seeing the suspect trying door handles of multiple vehicles. He was wearing the victim's sweatshirt when officers located and arrested him. Great job reporting suspicious behavior.
