An international crime ring has targeted the Brentwood community, burglarizing two homes during the Christmas holiday. These incidents took place in The Governors Club subdivision, recognized for its upscale residences.
According to the Brentwood Police Department, the burglars stole jewelry and cash. They utilized sophisticated tactics, including jammers to disrupt home surveillance signals, which allowed them to operate without detection.
The police noted that the burglars typically park in a different neighborhood before approaching their targets. They specifically choose homes that back up to wooded areas, which may provide cover during their operations. Authorities have identified the burglars as originating from the South American region.
In response to these incidents, the Brentwood Police Department urges residents to take precautions to make themselves harder targets for such criminal activities. An official statement from the department emphasized the importance of enhancing home security measures.
Residents are encouraged to invest in home surveillance cameras and safes to protect their valuables. The police indicated that a different group from the same crime ring is expected to continue the pattern of burglaries in the area.
The recent burglaries have raised concerns among residents, prompting discussions about safety and security within the community. The Brentwood Police Department is actively investigating the incidents and is working to increase patrols in the affected neighborhoods.
As the holiday season continues, residents are reminded to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to law enforcement. The police are committed to addressing these crimes and ensuring the safety of the Brentwood community.
