Minimal loss beyond vehicle damage
A series of auto burglaries were reported in Piedmont on the morning of March 11. Piedmont Police Capt. Chris Monahan said there was “minimal to no loss” from the incidents.
The police log reported four to five events that apparently occurred overnight. A 2026 Lexus SUV, an Audi Q5, and a black Tesla Model Y were among the vehicles reported to have been broken into on or around Oakland Avenue, according to the police log. A dark gray 2023 Tesla was also in the log. There was another report of a vehicle on Estrella Avenue that had its door handle damaged and a report of a wallet being stolen from a vehicle parked in front of a residence on Arbor Drive.
Monahan said an unknown suspect broke the windows.
Also on the morning of March 11, a blue 2016 Acura MDX was reported stolen on Magnolia Avenue. The report said it was taken between the hours of 7 p.m. on March 10 to 7 a.m. on March 11. Monahan said the victim reported that they had accounted for all of the keys. He said Flock cameras did not record the vehicle leaving Piedmont. The vehicle is still outstanding.
