Two car break-in reports to share, one at a local park, one with puzzling loot choices – and a followup on a recent car prowl, with a victim getting some of her stolen items replaced – read on for all three:
From Jana:
My friend’s car (Honda Civic) was broken into at the North Lincoln Park Parking lot around 4:30 today. They stole her purse and GPS system. They must have been profiling – looking for individuals who opened their truck to store valuables while at the park. Be on the lookout! I just moved from Eastlake to West Seattle and I HATE that this is my friend’s first impression of the neighborhood.
And from Zach:
Our car was broken into last night (Friday, Feb. 26th) on the 3600 block of Roxbury [map]. The driver side window was smashed and loose items in the center console taken (including prescription glasses, which is really frustrating). A GPS unit that was in the glove box was not taken, however, and we didn’t have anything else of value in the car at the time (thankfully). Seattle police were notified this morning.
Last but not least – KatherineL shared her story last Tuesday about a bag of groceries stolen from her car near the West Seattle Library after she’d shopped at Metropolitan Market (WSB sponsor); one of the comments was the store staff’s offer to make it up to her, and today, she accepted the offer:
I went into Metropolitan Market today and replaced the groceries that were stolen from my car. Thank you, Glenn and Warren. They were incredibly generous and gracious, even though I warned them I’d had more than a few cookies.
