Los Angeles police are investigating a series of home burglaries across the San Fernando Valley, including a recent break-in in Granada Hills that neighbors say is part of a growing pattern. The most recent burglary happened late Thursday on Wood Ranch Road, according to LAPD.
Police said there have been multiple burglaries on the same street in recent weeks, prompting residents to remain on alert. Police responded to the home around 8:40 p.m. after reports of a break-in. Neighbors noticed a heavy police presence shortly after officers arrived.
Another neighbor said police activity, including a helicopter overhead, quickly raised concern. 'The helicopter and I'm like omg, I text my neighbor, I go 'What's going on? Is your husband home?'' Susie recalled.
LAPD said no one was home at the time of the burglary, but the homeowner was watching the incident unfold through his Ring camera. Investigators are searching for three suspects who entered the home and fled with some of the owner's belongings. Police have not said what was taken or how much it was worth.
'It's a concern in the neighborhood because this is the third break-in in that particular home. There's some concern about why that particular home is always broken in,' he said.
The burglary is part of a broader series of break-ins reported across the San Fernando Valley over the past week. On Wednesday, a home on Vanscoy Avenue in Valley Glen was burglarized, with suspects fleeing before police arrived.
