12 garage break-and-enters reported in Westmount and 124 Street areas
Edmonton Police Service (EPS) is encouraging people to install alarms and use secure locks after a dozen garage break-and-enters west of downtown.
Between April 3 and May 9, 12 break-and-enters were reported to police, usually happening in the early mornings between midnight and 6 a.m. in the areas of Westmount and 124 Street.
The thieves gain access to the garage through back alleys and are typically taking items that can be carried away on a bicycle, police said.
They're described as two to three males of average build and height, and one female who is 'heavy set' with brown hair and glasses.
EPS is encouraging people to keep a record of serial numbers for valuable items, which can help with recovering if an item is stolen.
Anyone with information about the suspects can contact police at 780-423-457 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
