The first two occurred consecutively in the Fruitvale neighborhood with the third in the Three Oaks Court gated community. One suspect is believed to be the sole perpetrator of all three burglaries, as the method of entry and goods taken appeared to be identical.

The break-ins occurred while the residents were at home at the opposite end of the house. The perpetrator appeared to enter through open doors and windows near the master bedroom and selectively stole jewelry. Nothing in the rooms was ransacked or broken. There have been no witnesses to any of the burglaries. Neighbors of the targeted residences were alerted immediately.
