Door cameras pick up multiple car break-ins

The front door cameras of two different houses in Birmingham captured separate car break-ins on the night of Sunday, February 25, each catching multiple suspects going through cars. 

A man living on the 1300 block of Dorchester Road reported to police at 7 a.m. that his front door camera caught three suspects opening the door of his vehicle and going through it. 

During the same night, at roughly 3 a.m., a male resident living on the 1000 block of Forest Avenue reported to police that he received a movement alert from the front door camera’s mobile app. The camera caught two suspects trying to open the car doors of multiple vehicles parked on the street.
