Vehicle Break-Ins and Tires Slashed near Silver Lake

A neighborhood near Silver Lake has had more than its share of vehicle break-ins and related mischief this summer. Resident Rick O’Shea says people are going into unlocked vehicles at night taking spare change, cash and electronics on Robinsons Drive, Terrace Road and Blackstone Avenue.

This past week he said he has had cash and a radar detector stolen. Then this past Friday night he said he witnessed someone searching through cars across the street from his home but the suspect fled after being seen. “After checking out cars I found that tires were slashed on two of our cars,” he added.

Police came and took fingerprints from one of the vehicles.
