Residents of a north Laredo neighborhood say they're fed up with constant vandalism in their area.
They’ve filed police reports but now want the suspects to know they're watching.
“Somebody spray painted one of our vehicles egging our vehicles,” says Stephanie Estrada.
A rash of vandalism is leaving its mark in a north Laredo neighborhood.
The recent incidents have people wondering who will be next.
“The world is what it is but this is supposed to be a safe neighborhood.”
One of Estrada’s dogs was stolen from a gated area Friday, making it the third family dog stolen this year alone.
“There's a teenage boy picking up the dog and running to the car and driving away. My dad yelled at them and saw them but they skidded away.”
Right across the street, another homeowner says she's worried after waking up to find several broken windows and planters gone.
“It’s kinda hard. We wake up during the night when we see our lights turn on. We go ahead and come and check,” says Norma Moncivais.
Neighbors are now banning together, hoping to put an end to months of headaches. Some have even installed security cameras, and even caught the suspicious vehicle on camera.
They hope the suspects realize that not only police, but also an entire neighborhood is watching.
“It’s kind of sad that it's our property, those are our animals, these are things we provide our family with.”
Estrada says she's filed a police report and hopes more police will patrol the area.
At least four of her neighbors say they plan on doing the same hoping the vandalism will stop.
