POLICE BULLETIN
POLICE REPORT The Pleasanton Police Department made the following information available.
Trio plunders Via Peralta home Three men are believed to be responsible for a Nov. 13 daytime burglary at a home on Via Peralta. According to one of the homeowners, neighbors spotted two men outside the home between 9 and 10 a.m. The pair apparently entered the back yard of the home, entered the garage through a back door and opened the garage door for a third man who was driving a truck. The three then closed the garage door and entered the home through its connection with the garage. The trio stole almost all of the electronics in the house: TVs, laptops, two gaming systems and all the games. They removed a pillow sham from the bed and loaded it up with all the homeowners’ jewelry. The homeowner said they must have been startled, because they left abruptly, leaving a computer partially removed. They also left a duffel bag containing a number of items in the garage. A neighbor saw the garage door open at about 10 a.m.
