Bad actors had crowbars – They were prepared
Local media is reporting another round of residential burglaries involving attempts to steal key fobs. In one instance, the targeted home’s security camera recorded bad actors using a pry bar to try to access the home. Homeowners, at all times, are obligated to protect their families and take all reasonable measures to present their homes as they are home and are fully engaged in the security of their homes.
