Garage door opener alert
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Our crime analyst has found that some of the victims of burglaries that we’ve had the past few weeks were previous victims of thefts from their cars. One of the items stolen was the garage door opener.
The thieves later returned to the house when the victim was gone. They opened the garage door, drove inside, and then closed the door to hide the car while going through the house.
If you have the unfortunately luck of losing the garage opener in a theft, make sure to re-program the opener.
