Residential Burglary activity has spiked again, both in Arcadia, and in surrounding areas. The attached screen shot is from CrimeMapping.com and shows Burglaries in North Arcadia from January 1 - 27, 2016. The majority of Arcadia burglaries have been committed during daytime hours.
Although the Department places additional officers, both in plain cars and marked units in problem areas, we are not always in the right place at the right time. Please remember to be vigilant in both your observation of your neighborhood and with your own home safety and security.
