Thieves have been targeting vehicles parked on the Texas State campus. Jessica Elmore has more in this Bobcat Update.
For months now, the I-H-35 corridor has provided burglars with an array of opportunities. The number of car break-ins has become so prevalent that the University Police Department is now joining forces with other area police departments to catch the thieves.
Police say they believe the criminals are non-students. U-P-D captain Rickey Lattie says the same group may be responsible for a string of break-ins. Lattie says the thieves are showing no respect for property and are doing incredible amounts of damage. Lattie says it's important not to provide bait for the burglars.

Thieves often go after radio and stereo equipment, G-P-S devices, laptops and purses. Many students feel uneasy about the break-ins and are taking precautions to protect themselves.

Several campus parking lots have been hit and the burglaries are often happening in the early morning hours between 2 and 6. The lots are vulnerable because most Texas State parking lots don't have surveillance cameras. To try to curb the amount of burglaries, the U-P-D has increased patrols on campus.
