Hey all. Just wanted to let everyone know that we had a few cars broken into and ransacked on Bowman St last night (bottom block). I think it was just kids as they didn’t really take anything (that we know of) but made a mess. They even broke my 1 year old daughters sunglasses into a bunch of pieces. I must have left my door open since i dont see forcible entry. Doesn’t sound like me though. I made a report to the police. Wanted to make everyone aware. – Andrew
My wife’s car and a neighbor’s car were both broken into last night on Bowman near Conrad. As far as she can tell nothing was taken and they even left the easy pass that I tell her not to leave in there. They didn’t break a window (like in our old hood of Northern Liberties). They kind of just through the glove box papers all over the seat. – James
