SAN FRANCISCO—On Wednesday, October 8 several members of an overnight residential construction burglary crew have been arrested. Officers arrested three suspects in a residential construction burglary and fencing operation this week, recovering thousands of dollars in stolen construction equipment. The crew was operating overnight and targeting homes in San Francisco that were under construction.
The operation was the result of a criminal investigation that began in mid-September when SFPD Citywide Plainclothes members and SFPD Fencing Unit became aware of suspected residential burglars providing suspected stolen property to a suspected fence (a person who buys stolen property) following a residential construction site burglary.
