Summerstrand Home Robbed at Dawn: Family Vehicle and Electronics Stolen
Crime
Shortly before 5?am on 20?April, a Summerstrand resident contacted our control centre to report that three intruders, wearing gloves and balaclavas, had forced entry through an unbarred lounge window on Gomery Avenue. The suspects made off with several cellphones, two tablets and a flat?screen television before fleeing in the family’s white Hyundai.
The stolen vehicle was immediately flagged on our vast CCTV network for tracking, and alerts were sent to all nearby units to aid in its recovery.
Thankfully, no injuries were sustained, though the family’s children were awakened by the home invasion. Police arrived soon after to open a case, and the resident remained in close contact with our control centre, providing vital updates to support the ongoing investigation and tracking efforts
