Two burglary suspects remain at large after victims said they stole up to $250,000 worth of items from their Orange County home on Halloween night.
Home security cameras along Gardenia Avenue in Garden Grove captured hooded thieves at work, snatching valuables from a home they had broken into shortly before 9 p.m., disabling much of the security system, and busting through the front door, possibly with a crowbar.
In addition, from studying another angle of security footage and comparing notes, the victims discovered the culprits followed them to a Halloween party 20 minutes from their home and disabled their vehicle, slashed a tire, then returned to the neighborhood to strike.
The loot included expensive handbags, jewelry, watches, cash and a massive safe holding guns and important items, according to reports.
KTLA’s Chris Wolfe spoke with the victims, Peter Lee and Vicki Nguyen, who are asking for the community’s help in identifying the suspects.
“I now don’t feel safe in my own house,” said Nguyen. “They definitely robbed my peace.”
