VIDEO: Attempted Home Burglary in the
5400 Block of Grove StreetSuspect appears to be the same man responsible
for a burglary on February 15On Saturday, February 27, 2021 at 8:36 p.m., a man walked onto the front porch of a home in the 5400 block of Grove Street. A security light popped on which appeared to startle the man and he turned away momentarily. A few seconds later, the man quietly opened the storm door and appeared to try to enter the home, but the main door was locked. The man then walked around the side of the home before leaving the area. The suspect did not enter the home.
The homeowner discovered the prowler when he reviewed the recordings from his security system, and he notified Village Police right away. View the video of the Grove Street suspect at the below YouTube link:
The man captured in the video on Grove Street appears to be the same man who broke into a home on February 15 in the 5500 block of Montgomery Street. View the video of the Montgomery Street suspect at the below link (the man first appears at 19 seconds into the video):
