Police are investigating a daytime burglary on Monday in Perry Hall.
Between 9:15 a.m. and 4 p.m., in the unit block of Bangart Avenue, a brick was used to break a glass door on the side of a carport. A bedroom inside the home was ransacked and jewelry boxes were dumped out, but nothing was taken, according to a police report.
The incident was just the latest in Perry Hall's three-month rash of more than two-dozen home burglaries. Most have occurred during the day and many have involved stolen jewelry.
Capt. Michael Balog of the White Marsh precinct said investigators are "following several leads." The precinct has increased patrols through Perry Hall neighborhoods, he said.
Balog encouraged residents to be vigilant in reporting any suspicious behavior to 911 immediately, including vehicles and people who appear out-of-place in neighborhoods.

You need to look at who’s working in the neighborhood…I noticed a lot of these hoods have home improvements companies in the area..These companies use day laborers picked up at corners or Home depot. These robberies occur in day time when no one would think twice about a “worker/painter” entering a home. Monkton has a rash of thefts and behold—home improvement companies in most locales...

Don't forget that BGE just contracted tree trimmer to come through and clear the lines in our neighorborhoods, a few weeks later a house was broken into in our neighborhood. You have to be very aware of EVERYTHING that is going on around your neighborhood. Be very overt about watching a suspious person, until they leave the area, let them see you on the phone with the police, passing along the tag number and a discription of the vehicle and its driver. Look for people on bicycles, as well.

Neighbors who are at home during the day could take periodic walks thru the neighborhood to show the thieves that we are watching. Good for our health and protecting our heighborhood.
