Neighbors in one Mar Vista neighborhood have started banding together after repeated targets by burglars in recent weeks, many of which have been captured on home surveillance footage.
Most recently, just under a week ago, a trio of suspects can be seen hopping the fence of a property under construction before breaking into the home next door to Monica Richardson.
“They’ve been broken into four times in a year-and-a-half,” Richardson said.
Her security cameras showed the moments that the suspects bolt from the house, jumping into what looks like a light-colored, late model Toyota Camry.

Last weekend, on Set. 21, different video shows two men wearing all-black clothing and masks broke into a different home in the same neighborhood. Neighbors believe that the burglars are in search of jewelry and designer bags.
Residents say that the burglars have a similar MO in each incident, often using a WiFi jammer to disrupt the signal at homes and turning off the power by using circuit breakers.
