West Linn Victimized By Rash Of Overnight Vehicle Break-ins -04/21/23

On April 21, 2023, the West Linn Police Department took more than 50 reports of vehicle break-ins that occurred during the overnight and early morning hours between April 20 and April 21.  Subsequently, two residential burglaries were also reported in the same area.  The preliminary information gathered at this point has identified at least four suspects, all of whom appear to be males in their late teens to early twenties, wearing hooded sweatshirts, masks and gloves. The suspects are associated with a white Chevrolet Suburban fitted with aftermarket wheels.

The thieves primarily broke windows on the vehicles to gain access and then ransacked the interiors, stealing property.  

The West Linn Police Department is asking anyone who may have Ring camera footage of the suspects or any other additional information about these crimes to call the non-emergency LOCOM dispatch number at (503) 635-0238.
