This is the first reported break in since 2010 when there were three during that year.
Below is the report we put together we published on crime in the neighborhood on January 18, 2011.
There have been at least three burglaries in the neighborhood in 2010. The words “at least” are used because it is not clear the Sheriff Department, which has jurisdiction, actually knows how many occurred. I requested that the department run a report on 2010 crimes committed on Vista Redonda Road, Paseo Encantado, and Vista Hermosa.
The first report the department produced showed only one crime, what it listed as a “commercial burglary” on Vista Redonda Road in August. When I pointed out that the New Mexican had published two other burglaries, the department redid its database search. “I was having difficulty finding it because when the report was made there wasn’t a numerical put on the report,” explained the person in charge of records. “If you look on the occurrence location I had put 1 to 99999, that is usually how we find our data. Since the location didn’t have a numerical I found it by doing occurrence location at 0 to 99999. "
Still this report failed to include the most recent burglary. In late December, according to the New Mexican, a Wii system, three watches, a camera, a checkbook and a day planner were taken from a residence on Vista Redonda.
So, we know of at least three burglaries in 2010 and here are the ones that I could locate for 2009:
- A laptop computer and silver and wood tray were taken from a home on Vista Redonda Road sometime between 1 and 2:30 p.m. Tuesday. The thief is thought to have entered the residence through a large dog door. (New Mexican, November 26, 2009)
- A laptop computer, a suitcase and jewelry were stolen Tuesday from a residence on West Paseo Encantado. (New Mexican, August 26, 2009).
