Los Angeles:
Earlier this year, the Los Angeles Police Department began a task force
to investigate “fence” burglaries. A fence is an individual who
knowingly buys stolen property for later resale, sometimes in a
legitimate market. The task force engaged in extensive surveillance and investigative efforts which culminated with the arrest of numerous suspected burglars and the service of multiple search and arrest warrants at several locations of suspected “fencing” operations, resulting in the potential recovery of burglary victims’ property. The search warrants resulted in the booking of over 11,000 items of evidence. In an effort to return property to rightful owners and victims of burglaries, the property is now available to be viewed online. Victims of burglaries in Los Angeles, Orange, Ventura, Riverside, and San Bernardino Counties are encouraged to view the online photographs using the following link: Click here for pictures of stolen items. If individuals believe their property is depicted in any of the photographs, they may send an e-mail to lapdvctf@lapd.lacity.org or leave a message at 818-644-8091. In your e-mail or message left, please include a brief description of the item, the item number written on the yellow tab in the photography, the name listed as the victim on your burglary report, the report number, the address where the burglary occurred, the date of the crime and a callback number. For further information or questions, please call Operations-Valley Bureau, Detective II Joe Esquivel at 818-644-8091. |

The Dropbox account looks to have been suspended. Will there be another place to view stolen items?

How dose one (who's a victim) look at these photos now that Dropbox has closed its page?

How does someone who is a victim look at the photos now. Tried today and got this error message: Error (509)This account's public links are generating too much traffic and have been temporarily disabled!
