Another Home Robbed: Flatscreen, Jazz Bass & Blu-Ray Stolen

Several expensive items were stolen from a home on Locust Place Tuesday night while the residents were still in the home. This marks one more in what has been a recent surge in home burglaries.

“My roommate was up all night, but stayed in her room," wrote resident Colin Wright on Reddit. “She heard footsteps and the shuffling of feet, but just figured it was me and my girlfriend in the living room getting a glass of milk or something. Insane.”

Here are the stolen items: 

• Geddy Lee Fender Jazz Bass (Serial#: S008618) (That's S and in Sam, zero zero eight six one eight) This bass is worth over $1,000 and has enormous sentimental value to me. It's certainly the thing that hurt the most to lose. REWARD: $500.00
• Bicycle: Marin Larkspur Hybrid (Silver) (Serial#: CA10642ASE143) worth around $500.
• Panasonic 44'' Flatscreen TV ~$500
• Sony Blu Ray player ~$250
• Also a Nintendo Wii, Super Nintendo, and the SNES game Earthbound.

A $500 reward is being offered for the jazz bass, which the owner loved liked a child. If you have information, you can contact police at 530-747-5400, view the user’s post on Reddit, or comment below.

Wright filed a police report. He also told me in an email that his neighbor's gate was found open the following day, meaning the burglar(s) likely tried to enter their house as well. 

As for the spike in robberies: Police arrested 37-year-old Kyle Frank of Shingle Springs last week after a burglary in East Davis. They are still investigating whether he was involved in any of the other recent thefts.
