The Los Angeles Police Department’s Pacific Division is reporting an increase in burglaries in the Palms area, specifically with burglars who are entering apartments through first floor bathroom windows.
The Division said this was occurring during the hours of 8 am to 3 pm in the area between Venice and Palms Boulevard and Overland and Hughes Avenue.
Most locations have open or unlocked windows.
“Be on the lookout for small or slender suspects acting suspiciously, they may use trash cans or bins to gain entry into small bathroom windows, and report suspicious activity to police immediately,” the Division said.
