SEATTLE - Residents in the Blue Ridge and North Beach neighborhoods of Seattle think they are being targeted by burglars.
Rudy Pantoja has had enough.
"My neighbor was hit, multiple neighbors up the street have been hit," he said.
The hits are coming from a burglar or burglars who have grown increasingly bold.
"The disturbing part is the attempted burglaries are happening at night, while families are sleeping," said Phil.
Phil is part of a new neighborhood system that is trying to track down the criminals.
"We've started a distribution list for emails with security reports as they happen," he said.
That includes surveillance video, which a neighbor believes may show a person of interest in one North Beach burglary.
Neighbors say cars, electronics and other items have been taken in the spree.
And they're hoping by going on the offensive, they can end the trend and capture the crooks.
"We don't need to have a home invasion robbery or burglary go bad," said Rudy.
"Report anything, anything suspicious," said Phil.
Thankfully, although there have been some close calls, no one has been seriously injured.
