A home in the Pacific Palisades was burglarized twice in less than 7 hours

While the residents of a Pacific Palisades house were away late Saturday and into early Sunday, a crew of suspects allegedly burglarized the empty home not once, but twice in about a seven-hour span.

The first burglary was reported on Embury Street at about 10 p.m., according to the Los Angeles Police Department. The suspects allegedly entered the home from a second-story window.

Just hours later, at 4:30 a.m., police learned of a second break-in — this time the suspects smashed through a sliding-glass door on the first floor.

Police said that the two burglaries were likely performed by the same two men. Both were believed to be armed.

As of Sunday evening, it’s unclear what was stolen from the home.

A neighbor told KTLA’s Jennifer McGraw that the neighborhood is generally safe, which could have put a target on the home.

“What’s the optimal criminal strategy here,” said Sophia Kivelson. “Maybe like, [the residents] are no longer on their guard or something?”

The suspects fled the home before police arrived in both instances. No other identifying information was immediately made available.
