The Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office is investigating a string of car burglaries reported over the holiday weekend in the Arlington neighborhood.
Ryan Bruhn just moved into his home on Burdette Road with his fiancée and toddler. He said he got home from work around 1:30 a.m. Saturday and woke up to find his car ransacked.
“Was going to my car to go get breakfast in the morning and saw that something had rummaged through my car,” Bruhn said.“I had a $700 Xbox sitting right here in my kid’s baby seat, and they didn’t even touch it,” Bruhn said. A handful of people along the street noted that overnight their cars were also opened and looked through. Most said they did not have anything significant stolen.“That surprises me because it’s been pretty quiet here,” he said. “I’m sorry to hear it’s happening again.”Bruhn was thankful that someone did not try breaking into his home.
Just a short drive away from the street, police said close to a dozen cars were broken into at the St. Johns Forest Apartments on Dec. 20. The incident report says most of those cars had their windows broken out, causing thousands of dollars in damage.Copyright 2023 by WJXT News4JAX - All rights reserved.
