Well there is. Learn more about it at www.EncinoWatch.com or attend the next meeting.
Here is an update on our Local Crime Activity.
Garage doors are being left open, and has become an invitation for thefts. A most recent occurrence took place on the 4800 block of Louise on 11/30 between 6:45 and 7:00 p.m. Unlocked vehicles have resulted in thefts from cars on the 16800 block of Encino Hills Drive, on Westfall, and Margate at Newcastle. Items left in the cars were wallets, gift cards, cash, and a large flat screen TV.
Cars are being broken into on the 17400 block of Ventura. Patrons, while visiting a local health club, are leaving items in their cars that is resulting in numerous break-ins.
Three local teenagers (surrounding area) were arrested after breaking into five cars in the Newcastle/Zelzah area. Also arrested for breaking into cars were two gang members from the Westside.
Please do not leave anything in your car in plain sight and remember to lock your vehicles. In addition, close your garage door as soon as you enter or leave. There seems to be those out there just waiting for an opportunity and it only takes a moment.
