Car Break-in Around Burnaby North Area

Hey guys, two of my cars got broken into this morning around 6 am. Both cars were parked on my driveway. Apparently the thief also broke into a few cars around the neighborhood as well.

Just wanted to let you guys know and raise awareness. Fortunately, I had nothing in my car and the thief tried to break in my S500 but was unsuccessful thanks to laminated glass. The other car was not so lucky.

MG1 warned about this a week or so ago. It's unfortunate that these thief's are still out there.

Same thing happen to my area. Me and my sister's car window were smashed.
There's about 10 cars or more in my neighborhood (Camrose Park) having the same problem.

I am. I live near Burnaby North Secondary.
Our house been robbed 2 years ago and houses around us has also been robbed/attempted. From the sounds of things, I heard it is likely a group of Middle Easterns

about a month and a half ago someone bent open my door and stole some used sparkplugs, a broken gps system worth 30$, and a 2$ lottery ticket. Jokes on them, you can only redeem the ticket in alberta

You'd think the weather would make them want to stay somewhere warm instead of being out in the cold...

Wow that sucks, I used to live in that neighbourhood a few months ago.
Have you guys who are living in that area thought about setting up a a webcam to monitor your driveway? I remember googling and finding a program that takes pictures with your webcam when it detects motion. Pretty useful for situations like this
