At the West Seattle Crime Prevention Council meeting on March 17 Officer Darin Chinn reoprted to the community that a pair of suspects have attempted to burglarize several homes near Southwest Thistle Street between California Avenue and 35th Avenue Southwest.

Chinn said that two suspects have been knocking on the doors of various homes between 8 p.m. and 2 a.m. and breaking in if residents don't answer.

The suspects have been described as two males, possibly Hispanic and African-American, in their early twenties, approximately 5 feet 10 inches tall with a thin build, wearing dark hooded sweatshirts.

Chinn said if any unknown persons knock on your door you should keep the door closed, firmly demand they leave and call the police.
