So there have been 3 robbery or robbery attempts in Monte Vista over the last two weeks. The two actual robberies were on the 700 block of Arlington and 800 block of Eugene and took place in the middle of the day. The Arlington robbery indicates that someone is watching the neighborhood as Mr. Ivy is a retired person who stays home all day and left the house for a doctor's appointment.
The most recent attempted break in happened last night (around 3am) when someone tried to enter the house through a window. Thankfully the alarm system was in place and scared the burglar away. With the warmer weather and the migration of homeless going through town, this is only going to get worse. You should recall that a couple of spring breaks ago, nearly every house on Arlington was robbed in the middle of the day. Invest in alarm systems if you can. Know who is home during the day and can keep an eye out for you. Use common sense - do not keep valuables in your vehicles. Lock up your lawn mowers and easily transportable goods. Report anything and everything suspicious to the BR Police.
