Lamorinda heated up a little last week, both meteorologically and on the crime front, as car burglars roamed our parking lots and alleys in search of loot. Lafayette police have been making arrests and have launched a “don’t feed the bears” anti-theft campaign in the city, but admit they are still busy chasing after and catching thieves who come here because the pickings are good.
Here’s a breakdown of calls reported as handled by the men and women of the Lafayette Police Department last week. The crime reports received by NEWS24-680 were heavily redacted, so we offer this listing with the caution that some reports appear to have been been removed:
