Delray Beach police are warning residents about burglars targeting unoccupied homes. Police say the crooks break in during the dinner hour by smashing windows or glass doors.

Investigators said there were three similar incidents in late September or early October in the Seagate Country Club community.

They are concerned that the burglars may have committed similar crimes that have not yet been reported or that took place in nearby jurisdictions.

A surveillance camera recorded people wearing hooded sweatshirts and masks in one break-in.

Police ask anyone with information to call Delray Beach Police Det. Chris Trapasso at (561) 243-7868.
