Keep watch for these vehicles, which may be used for burglaries in our neighborhood

Bryan Police Officer J.P. Ingram of Neighborhood Enforcement Team 7 Zone reports that daytime burglars are hitting the 7 Zone (which includes the Garden Acres subdivision) with alarming frequency in recent months.

The burglars appear to focus on side streets rather than major thoroughfares, and strike between the hours of 8 am. and 5 p.m. They may avoid lunch hours to avoid homeowners who come home to eat. They also avoid weekends.

Their last two strikes were on Midwest near Briarcrest/29th and on Garden Acres near Texas/Broadmoor. Based on the patterns of the burglaries, the theives' focus appears to be moving to the northwest, Officer Ingram says.

He requests that all residents of the subdivision report any suspicious behavior to Bryan police at 979-361-3888.

In particular, keep an eye out for these vehicles, which police suspect are being used in burglaries in our neighborhood:

  • A blue, four-door Buick LeSabre (first three digits of the licence place: 537).
  • A dark, four-door Cadillac (685).
  • A silver, four-door Chevy Impala (695).
  • A brown, four-door Chevy Caprice (276).
  • A white, four-door Chevy Blazer (5WS).
  • A maroon, four-door Chevy Lumina (822).
  • A blue, four-door Chevy Lumina (Y63).
  • A silver, four-door Mazda Protege (P12).
