West Linn police are putting a bow on close to forty unsolved car break-ins thanks to a vigilant citizen. The witness in question spotted the suspect car and snapped a photo on his IPhone and called the cops after he found out a neighbor had been victimized.
An investigation lead cops to a group of four suspects who admitted to the thefts once they were in custody. The neer-do-wells busted into cars in West Linn, Lake Oswego and Happy Valley, claiming they expected to find better loot in the affluent neighborhoods.
Damages top 15 grand and the quartet are looking at seven counts apiece.
