Los Altos residents worried about string of home burglaries

Residents in Los Altos held a community safety meeting on Sunday afternoon to talk about the recent rise in home burglaries. Local officials, including the Santa Clara County Sheriff and the Los Altos mayor were there to address their concerns."Always turned on the TV very loud, and the lights were on inside and outside the house when we left. None of that mattered," said Carla Dagnone, a Los Altos resident who spoke about her home being burglarized.

"This has become a very, very sophisticated organized group of individuals committing these crimes. They definitely know when you’re out of town or when they think you should be out of town," said Santa Clara County Sheriff Bob Jonsen. "There’s some good news though. Although it’s just a 3-month snapshot thus far, in Los Altos Hills, our residential burglary numbers are down 43% in 2022 as compared to the same time period last year," said Lt. Brown.
