The residents said this was not the first time, as they told CBS 2's Sara Machi about the escalating problem.
Residents told us such break-ins have been happening for months - but the numbers are increasing. Some cars remained at the scene Monday afternoon with broken windows.
Video taken by a resident showed at least 10 car windows busted out on one block. But those 10 might only be half of it. Jones said thieves broke her window two weeks ago and tried to start the car with a screwdriver but failed - something that cost her $175 to fix."We know that we have an issue, and we have to be able to tackle that," said Ald. Robinson.
"A lot of times, the cameras are not working - and a lot of the property managers are don't know that they can tie those cameras into OEMC," the alderman said,"and so part of my responsibility is to meet with property managers and share that information with them."
