CLEARLAKE — Clearlake Police Department (CPD) is seeking the assistance of the community in helping to identify the person or persons responsible for a rash of recent commercial burglaries.
“There have been several commercial burglaries in and around the City of Clearlake in the last several days,” Sgt. R. Joseph said. “These burglaries appear to be related due to the similarities in the way each burglary was carried out.”
Joseph said the method of operation is being withheld for investigative purposes, however it appears the suspect(s) may have cased the businesses during regular business hours to determine the location of the targeted areas and security features prior to committing the crimes.
“All of the recent burglaries have occurred during nighttime or early morning hours while the respective businesses were closed,” Joseph said. “We would like to urge businesses to be alert to and to report any suspicious activity.”
Anyone with information about these burglaries or any other crime is asked to contact the CPD at 994-8251.
