I first heard on the news
weeks ago, that thieves were breaking in homes in an Evergreen
neighborhood of San Jose. On Wednesday September 24, 2014 around 10
a.m., a woman who lives off Croft Drive near Millbrook Elementary
School was a concerned neighbor. She called the San Jose Police
Department 911 number, she had witness two teenagers breaking in a
neighbor’s house carrying out items. The police officers caught the
thieves two blocks away on Yancy Drive, with the stolen items in
their possession. The 15 year old teens that were two males and one
female. With the help of a neighbor, the teenage thieves’ reign of
thievery in this San Jose neighborhood has come to an end. Their
lives will be forever changed and they deserve what they get. I have
no compassion for thieves. What gets me is where were the school
official’s. Is there still truancy laws in this state? What about
their parents or guardians were they not notified that they were
missing school? Someone missed the ball this could have been avoided.
This is a lesson to all keep your eyes open and look out for your
neighbors.
