Several business owners told only ABC13 that they believe the same burglar is responsible, but there's no way to stop him.We're taking a closer look at a rash of break-ins at bars across downtown. Several business owners told Eyewitness News that they believe the same burglar is responsible. Still, they said there's no way to stop him despite their alarm systems, surveillance videos, 911 calls, and even an arrest.

"It's beyond infuriating," Raul Jacobos, owner of Cobos in east downtown, said. "I'm livid." Cobos was broken into twice in four days. A bouncer familiar with the crimes said he helped put a man named Reginald Jones behind bars on Jan. 3 after an attempted break-in at Glitter.

Ya there is….sit and wait with a shotgun

Thank Lina Hildago!

They need a special ani-theft units that responds only to this type of cases. They got the money 💰 now provide the tax payers a good service!

If it was mine I would stay the night with a 12 gauge. End the cycle.
