KNX 1070′s Tom Reopelle reports police are warning residents to stay alert and keep valuables secured.

And flee if the power goes out?

A good alarm system is battery powered.

>>Weller said neighbors can be of particular help in preventing these types of burglaries.

Yes, if the power goes out, peek out your windows to see if there’s anyone casing the house. If so, wait for them to break in and then ventilate them.

Is is common in CA to have circuit breakers outside? In the northeast that is all inside.

"...breaking in to steal jewelry and unsecured firearms,..."

Had to work in a gun angle somewhere.

Impeach the kenyan or secession.

My tactical lights and laser sights run on batteries.

Our alarm system has a battery backup and we get a warning if either the power goes out or the phone lines die to our cell phones.

Sad that we have to think of every possible way a criminal could harm us

That’s why, for home defense, a tactical light on a firearm is of greater value than a laser.

Reason to own a gun. When seconds count the police are only minutes away.

I don’t think they’d chance my 4 dogs to get to my breaker box.
