Four Car Burglaries Reported on Sequoia Lane

Four car break-ins were reported Wednesday on Sequoia Lane, according to the .

Three of the four cars weren't locked at the time of the burglaries, which occurred on the 1400 and 1500 blocks of Sequoia, police said. The fourth car, though locked, did not show signs of forced entry. All of the thefts happened overnight.

Police said they don't have any suspects in the thefts. Items stolen during the burglaries on Sequoia included:

• a GPS, wallet and pack of cigarettes, of unknown value;
• a backpack with a laptop inside, valued at $830;
• and two iPods and prescription drugs, valued at $600, taken from two separate cars.
