Thanks to the quick actions of Shomrim volunteers, a suspect was arrested late Monday night for breaking into vehicles.

The incident began when a Shomrim volunteer on patrol noticed an individual acting suspiciously inside a parked car, rummaging through the glove compartment. The volunteer immediately alerted fellow Shomrim volunteers, who began following the suspect’s steps closely.

As the suspect moved to another vehicle and began attempting another break-in, Shomrim volunteers notified the NYPD. The volunteers discreetly observed as the suspect successfully broke into a second car, searching through its contents.

NYPD officers arrived shortly after and arrested the individual for the vehicle break-ins.
