WEST SEATTLE CRIME WATCH: Looking for dance-related items stolen in car break-in

Kamala hopes somebody has seen items taken when her car was broken into:

My car was broken into today between 8am-1:30pm near 30th and Roxbury. A pink metallic bag was taken that contained a lot of personal dance items. I dance with Bailadores de Bronce, and a number of my dance shoes and specific headpieces and accessories are now gone. They won’t be worth anything to the taker, but it will be a large undertaking for me to replace everything. Hoping someone in West Seattle might find the contents dumped somewhere?

Here are photos Kamala sent of some of the stolen items:

(And others.) If you think you’ve found one or more of these items, please let us know and we’ll connect you.

    So sorry this happened to you. I hope you can find your lost dance items.

    Kamala, I’m so incredibly sorry this happened to you! I actually remember your dance group performing for Dance This all those many years ago. And KING 5 featured your group in 2024 where your artistic director talked about meaning of your traditional dance items and members of your group performed.  https://www.king5.com/article/news/community/bailadores-de-bronce-kick-off-hispanic-heritage-month/281-44d1628d-66ea-44c1-a088-515b7baf8c31 .

    If you’d like to create a Go Fund Me page, I’d love to contribute and I’m sure others would too. Please follow up to let us know if you do so we can help and perhaps turn this experience into something at least a little more positive. !

    Stuff like this breaks my heart and also infuriates me. The thoughtless selfishness of a thief who gains nothing but hurts someone so much is far too common.

    I’m so sorry this happened. I hope you can recover some items. A few days ago I saw a few suitcases and a duffle bag behind the Rogene Apartments 

    9043 35th Ave SW in the alley. I didn’t look to see if there were any contents in them.
