A second vehicle also believed to be connected to the early Tuesday morning break-ins was also seized in the city’s Second Precinct, O’Hara said.
Lindsey LeMire, a 23-year-old graduate student who lives in the North Loop, was one of more than a dozen people whose car windows were smashed in the alley between 7th and 6th avenues N. where apartment residents park, or on N. 3rd Street. She said nothing was taken.
“It’s just frustrating that it derails my entire schedule … all for nothing,” LeMire said while sweeping glass. “I’d almost prefer they had stole something.”
Cars have also been broken into in other cities recently including Brooklyn Park, St. Louis Park and Edina, O’Hara said.
In interviews Tuesday with three break-in victims in the North Loop, all said nothing was taken from their vehicles. Some vehicles had small cracks on windows where suspects unsuccessfully tried to break in.
“You can only implement so much security,” said Sean Han, a 24-year-old supply-chain analyst. “Maybe [more cameras] will capture them on video, but I don’t know how much that would really help.”
