String of Burglaries Plague Hillsborough

Police in Hillsborough are reminding residents to lock their cars and homes after a series of burglaries occurred in the city last week.

A home in the Jacaranda neighborhood was broken into at about 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, police said. The suspect or suspects gained entry to a garage by smashing a window, which activated a security alarm, police said.

Nothing was taken from the home.

Separately, sometime late Wednesday night or early Thursday, property was stolen from an unlocked car that was parked on Victor Park Lane, police said.

A second auto burglary occurred at about the same time in the 900 block of Black Mountain Road, where property was taken from another unlocked vehicle.

Several other burglaries were reported in Hillsborough earlier this month.

Police are seeking anyone who might have seen anything suspicious.

Anyone with information can contact Hillsborough police at (650) 375-7470.
