A pickup truck was burglarized on the 4700 block of Angeles Crest Highway at 2:30 p.m. on Sept. 1. A man was finishing his gardening job at the location, and loaded his equipment, including a lawn mower, into the truck before stepping away for about one minute. Upon his return, he found that the lawn mower was missing.
The victim contacted deputies with the Crescenta Valley Sherrif’s Station who investigated security footage of the scene which showed a dark Ford pickup truck with a camper shell drive past the location several times before stopping alongside the victim’s vehicle. At that time, an unknown suspect loaded the lawn mower into the Ford truck and fled the scene.
