Report: East Village burglar has hit nine apartments in last month



Fox News has the following report:

The NYPD is investigating a series of burglaries in the East Village. The brazen burglar has struck at least nine apartments from March 10 through April 3, police said.

He even hit one building twice in one day -- once in the morning and once at night, the NYPD said.

The nine apartments are in the East Village from East 13th Street to East 8th Street from Avenue C to 3rd Avenue.

...it wouldnt help the window entries, but we just put door devils on our doors www.doordevil.com to stop kick-ins. combined with our "killer" maltese and my 9mm, hopefully we are ready for this guy.

FYI: I was burglarized on East 11th Street between A and B in mid-January in a similar manner, but the NYPD apprehended two people with some of my property. These guys were said to be operating around Manhattan. Case is still pending.

Wondering if these incidents are related, or if unrelated are they indicative of rising crime in the neighborhood?

Glad to hear that the two were arrested.... I really do think these break ins are indicative of the rising crime in the neighborhood — and city... Someone unsuccessfully tried to break into my apt building about six weeks ago....
