After what seemed like a epidemic of Burglaries in December died down in January; it seems they thieves are back at it again.

Several cases of break-ins have occurred in the Dupont Circle area of NW DC, where the thieves are coming into buildings, condos and homes through the roof.  Buildings are often secured with locked front entrances.  Residents need either a key or fob to gain access.  Some condos have a front desk to keep away any intruders.  

But the roof is often an easy target.  Think about how much more likely you are to leave a door to a roof deck unlocked as compared to your front door?

So it seems a group of thugs have thought about this and have scored many laptops and lots of jewelry. The moral of the story; lock-up the top of your house and the bottom!
