Thieves Getting Bold: Thief caught on camera after break-in at gated community (BR)

BATON ROUGE - Homeowners in Baton Rouge caught video of a bold thief casing their residence with security cameras in plain sight.
Angela Allen's home security camera caught the suspect in the act.
"We got all our high definition camera and we assumed that we would be safe," Allen said.
Allen lives in the University Villas, a gated community in south Baton Rouge where she felt she would be safe. But her recent security video has her and her family feeling disturbed.
Austin Kidder, one of Allen's relatives, said he was horrified when he saw the thief retrieve a gun from his car just outside of the home.
"It was scary, especially the footage we got... Who knows what he was planning."
Thanks to security cameras all throughout the area, the suspect's car was also caught on camera. However the thief's license plate was removed, making the search all the more difficult.
The crimes started about month ago with a series of car burglaries, but Allen said things soon escalated when a home was broken into.
Being a gated community is one reason why some of the residents bought homes in University Villas. But the gates and security cameras do little to ease the minds of residents after seeing this footage.
"We thought is would provide a measure of security, but we're not so sure any more," Allen said.
The residents have now posted pictures of the suspect throughout the neighborhood and are holding a community meeting with police.
Both are steps toward catching a thief who doesn't mind having his picture taken.
Have a few friends that ended up buying in there...sucks that they have to deal with it buy being so close to Gardere I guess that was always a risk.
This dude would have gotten a taste of some buckshot if he came up to my house like that.

How big is that neighborhood? If it's not a huge size this problem could probably be easily solved by having a couple neighborhood watch types cruise around at night.
Or us hoa fees to hire a nighttime security guy to drive around.

It's everywhere right now. I'm back and forth on getting a camera system because I just think it'll be a waste. they're gonna get in if they want.

Yep. They'll drive through U club and all the Spring Lake streets and jack anything left out front or not locked up in a closed garage.
They'll rummage through any open garage for power tools, bikes, etc.

A gate at the front of your neighborhood won't stop the ghetto cancer from spreading

A good large sized dog goes a long way to keeping thieves out

Another reason to leave the 225

I lived near there and got out of that shithole with a quickness years ago because anyone with brains could see this coming

if you have a 2 story house you can see most of the neighborhood from the 2nd floor. Setup on the 2nd floor and just pew pew

BR is going to turn into South Africa.
Where the white people that stuck around have to live in compounds with high walls, electric wire and cameras everywhere.

No way, a black man trying to steal.
Fake News, no way this happened.

Those gates never seem to be closed. That's the problem.

And then be subject to some bullshite SJW narrative about how that guy was a struggling student just trying to find goods to pawn to feed his 12 kids.
You would be portrayed as the evil rich white man who randomly shot this poor fellow just because he was in your neighborhood
