SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – Two burglary suspects have been arrested and investigators have a good description of the third after they were all caught in the act – on their own surveillance camera.
Neighbors in the 3000 block of Tamango Way in the Rosemont neighborhood can’t help but talk about it.
“Honestly, it’s a laughable thing,” one said.
“It just blew us away,” said another, Steve Clark
They can’t believe what two suspects already behind bars along with this mystery guy still on the loose are accused of doing.
“We’ve had our problems here in the neighborhood,” Don Nelson said.
Neighbors say it’s a two-hour burglary caught on tape, not by other neighbors, but captured by the suspects’ own surveillance cameras.
Thousands of dollars worth of merchandise were taken from the home on Tamango Way on April 22.
“Eight thousand dollars worth of stuff out of their home,” Clark said.
Last month, the victim, Tammy, who asked not to reveal her last name, said she and her husband were away on a camping trip when they were hit by the burglary trio, who took almost everything of value they had.
“They took all of our computers,” Tammy said. “Everything, everything.”
Eyewitnesses tell CBS13 that the suspects were so bold they used garbage cans to steal their neighbor’s property. Investigators say the suspects walked the goods right across the street to their own home and it was all captured on their home surveillance camera.
Don Nelson says the garbage cans rolling and back and forth 5:30 in the morning woke him up, so he called 911 and told them the suspects were his neighbors.
“Doesn’t happen that time of day,” Nelson said.
After getting a search warrant, investigators found the stolen goods and the video.
They were able to track down and arrest two people seen on tape, Tony Lewis and Kimi Crawford, both 35, but the third unidentified guy was nowhere to be found.
He is described as a light-skinned male, believed to be about 5-foot-10 with a slender build, between his late 20s and mid-30s.
