On Thursday, August 1, a dramatic burglary attempt occurred in the Brahmagiri area of Udupi. Four masked men, armed with rods, tried to break into a flat within an apartment complex. Their efforts, however, were thwarted, and they eventually fled the scene. The entire incident was captured on the complex’s CCTV cameras, providing clear evidence of their actions.
The flat they targeted was occupied by an elderly couple who had been away in Mumbai for the past week. In addition to this flat, it is alleged that the same group of men attempted to break into three other flats within the same complex. The repeated attempts indicate a potential pattern of targeting specific buildings or individuals.
Despite the clear footage and multiple attempts, no formal complaint has been lodged with the local police station as of yet. The lack of immediate reporting might delay any potential investigation or intervention.
The incident has raised concerns among residents about their security and the effectiveness of current safety measures in the area. The footage may prove crucial in identifying the suspects and preventing further incidents.
