The Toronto Police Service would like to make the public aware of a series of break-and-enters in Toronto.
In March 2013, police investigated a break-and-enter which occurred while the homeowner was in his backyard.
This reported entry is very similar to a number of break-and-enters which occurred last year within the west-end and central area of Toronto.
It has been reported that:
- between April 2012 and October 2012, the suspect(s) circle a residential neighbourhood searching for homeowners tending to their yards
- the suspect(s) gain entry into the homes via unlocked doors or windows
- the suspect(s) obtain a quantity of items from the household, usually jewelry or electronics, and flee with the items
- the homeowner may not be aware that the incident took place until a later time
The Toronto Police Service is reminding the public to remain vigilant of their own property and the property of their neighbours.
Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 416-808-1300, Crime Stoppers anonymously at 416-222-TIPS (8477), online at www.222tips.com, text TOR and your message to CRIMES (274637), or Leave A Tip on Facebook.
