" This kid was not watching this home all the way from Melrose Parkway.So I would bet money he has friends in or around French Ave. and I bet we will see more arrests in this case.I hope so, as I have relatives that live on French Ave. and I'm worried they could be next. "

" safe your home really is with forced entry? Residents should be very vigilant of locking their homes and reporting anyone even remotely suspicious in their neighborhoods to police or sheriffs office immediately. So often people don't report what they see as unusual. "

" these teens doing around here that they have nothing better to do than to stake out homes. If they aren't in school doesn't the school notify the parents? So many directives that are not in place with these kids in this day and age. "
