Residents in Danville neighborhoods targeted by car burglars again

DANVILLE, Calif. ( KRON ) — As previously covered on KRON4, Danville neighborhoods are dealing with burglars who go into victims’ cars searching for garage door openers. Now, residents are saying they are being targeted again.

One resident says it all happened in a few minutes. A group allegedly came up, and one person went into her car, sat in her front seat, and went through her things. The event was also caught on camera.

“I just don’t get it,” Dori Irwin, a Danville resident living off of Blackstone Dr., told KRON4. “The car came up, people split up and looked through it– it was not locked, which is my fault, but they went through the center console,” she said.

Irwin says her car was the only one the group was able to access on Wednesday at around 4:30 in the morning. She said they sat in her car and went through it.

“This is the second time this month, and the third time overall that this happened, and I’m kind of just wondering why this particular neighborhood,” Irwin said.
