A car burglar's latest victim in Oakland is former Council President Ignacio De La Fuente, who said more needs to be done to quell these kinds of crimes.
Surveillance video shows a newer model black BMW 5 Series slowly drive past De La Fuente's Buick lacrosse parked in Oakland’s Jack London Square.
It happened in broad daylight, at about 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at the corner of 2nd and Washington streets. Jack London Square has seen an increase in car burglaries in recent months. "It’s hundreds of lives and hundreds of people every single week. Oakland has become, you know, people are afraid to go out to dinner, afraid to park their car," De La Fuente said.
