Burglars in the Foothills

Chief Roger Johnson of the Monrovia Police Department is warning on Facebook that ...

"In the last few days, there have been two daytime burglaries in the 500 and 900 blocks of Norumbega. No one was at home during the burglaries, and it appears that the suspect may have used pepper spray to ward off the owner's dog in one of the cases. Entry was made to the rear of the houses. The houses were ransacked and small items of value were taken. We would encourage residents living in the area to secure your property and report suspicious persons or activity to the Monrovia Police Department as soon as possible. Thank you."
