The guy on the left looks a bit like the guy in the photo that was posted on this thread but now the original seems to be gone.

This is one reason (among others) that I have the "iCam" app. I love it. I set up a couple of webcams in my apartment that are visible and leave my computer running with the application. As soon as the webcam detects movement it starts recording. I can view this app anytime in real time on my phone, and the recordings are stored to my phone and hard drive.

There was a break in at our building on Pavonia Ave yesterday afternoon. This is the second time in 6 months and the same unit in the building was targeted. The first time nothing was stolen but this time was the tenant wasn't as lucky. Without going into too much detail as I don't want to make certain information public knowledge - i feel/know that our building doesn't meet the minimum security standards and our landlord is being all too casual about improving the current condition. I'm already looking into moving now, but I was going to reach out to my other tenants to get them to push the landlord to make REAL improvements. Are there any steps I can take to getting the ball rolling to get the landlord off his ass?

On a similar note....our car, parked on Embankment side of 6th between Jersey and Coles was (almost) broken into overnight last week. The lock was popped out but I guess that they couldn't open the door ~ the alarm never sounded. Filed a police report. The $1000 insurance deductible was our Christmas gift to ourselves this year.
A week before, our neighbors car, parked on 6th between Coles & Monmouth, was broken into and ransacked. UPS delivered a college text book and left it in our mailbox today. Ten minutes after the delivery was logged, the package was stolen. The delivery guy (our regular person) was as annoyed as we were.

It's NOT plausible that the fire dept did an "Oops. Wrong address." with the pry bar thing. If that happened, there would have been a big old firetruck with sirens blaring and red lights etc... I know. We had a small fire at the house while I was at work and they prybared the doors open and broke glass etc.... but they don't send one solitary guy. The neighbors told us that there were fire engines and several firefighters around...so ehhgg, no to the firefighter at the wrong address theory--very naive to even consider that, really--this isn't Kansas...

He's not good-looking enough to be a fireman. Just kidding. The huge baggy pants are pretty commonly seen amongst the street types, no? And if he's a fireman, where's his helmet? I don't buy the fireman thing at all.

I agree that it could be. Maybe they had a wrong address and started to pry the door and then were like "Oh sh**!" Seems plausible. The back of the shirt looked like a skull and crossbones at first but it could be one of those fire dept shields.

Looking a clothes only - looks like a fireman
That was my though right off the bat when I saw the picture. My reasoning is there was recently firemen at my building. Gloves overalls And fireman pants

A couple years ago a building on Hamilton Park was broken into and several bikes were stolen from the basement storage room. They were not locked. Two very expensive bikes were well locked and were left behind. The tenants decided that it wasn't worth reporting the crime nor taking any quick remedies to put in better locks. The NEXT DAY the burglars came back and got the two expensive bikes. So did you guys, hitchcock, meowmix et al, report your attempted break-ins to the cops?

All I can say is I hope people are reporting these break-ins. Like I've said/written a million times, this is not an army of burglars doing this stuff. It is usually the same 1 or 2 people hitting an area till they get caught or get nervous. Believe me, whether they've served time or not these dudes will keep coming back even after jail because they're lazy and stupid and probably live nearby. If you don't report these crimes then you are just making it easier for them.

Someone attempted to break in to our apartment about a month ago (near Hamilton Park) but couldn't get past the deadbolt. And a neighbor said her bike was stolen from the basement.
People in our building keep propping the front doors open -- to get groceries from the car? I don't know what. The idiocy is maddening.

Just curious about what the cops have said? Burglars are repeat offenders and are quite well known by cops. Did they recognize this guy? Meowmix did you report that attempted break-in? In the future I would recommend posting incidents on this site right away.

We had an attempted break in last week in our building on 5th and Brunswick. It looked like someone was trying to pry the deadbolt with a screwdriver. Maybe the same guy...

He looks a bit like this junkie / drunk I have seen around JSQ and the Heights. The nose, hair, and wraith like frame looks familiar. Really can't tell for sure though because of the low resolution quality of the image.

Is anyone in the area having work done on their building? Maybe the guy is working in the area, took a break with his gloves and pry bar and decided to help himself to some one selves stuff.
He is an idiot if he is a thief walking around with those big gloves on a warm day. That is why I am thinking maybe he is some kind of hired hand on a construction job in the area. Hope the lowlife gets caught!
