06-11-2003 - There were 3 break-ins this morning and 1 attempted break-in along USJ23/3A and USJ23/5A. Residents are advised to be extra careful during these festive periods as the thieves will be working at their hardest to get rich at your expense, don't become a victim, take all necessary precautions. We will beef-up our security, however as you can see even the backlane gates, security guards are insufficient to dither these people.
 

Case 1 Attempted Break-in - Corner House along USJ23/5A (house did not have alarm system)
House owner was awaken at about 1.30am by a noise that came from the side of his house, he came downstairs to find that the sliding door located at the side of his house was open. He took out his 'Nightwatch Baton' and checked outside of the house, finding nothing, he locked up, closed the sliding door (thinking that his kids forgotten to close it) and went back to bed.

Cash of about RM800.00 was taken, including a digital camera which the owner had bought less than a week ago worth RM1400.00 and a  handphone. The thief was not interested in Credit Cards.

Upon further investigation, we discover that the burglar operated barefooted, climbing over the garden fence. he even had time to sort out what he wanted in the room. He left the same way he came in throwing away the knife he used to pry open the window.

A total of RM500.00 was found missing including a few handphones which the house owner's wife uses for business.
The thief gained access into the house by climbing over the backlane gates, scaling the back wall of the house and had easy entry into the house which was only protected by a glass sliding door, without grilles. The thief probably sat on the chair go through the things on the table, he even had time to carry a brief case out into the void area behind the house and the back wall to check it out.
