A rollover of a different kind, 10/2/2011 Lafayette is not a gated community, especially if one driver has his way. When an unstoppable force (a car) met a moveable object (a rolling gate), the result was property damage. Driver and passenger were uninjured-can't say the same for the gate.

Fencing from the garage, 10/3/2011 What's behind door #1? If it was the garage door broken into in Lafayette recently, it was valued at over $2,000 in items stolen and another $1700 in repair bills for the door.

Vehicle vs. pedestrian, 10/5/2011 An unfortunate jaywalker tried to make it across Moraga Rd at Moraga Blvd., and was hit.

De-Jeweled, 10/08/2011 $5300 worth of jewelry was reported taken from a residence along St. Mary's Road just before midnight.

Legal lingo, 10/03/2011 When someone breaks your car window (and causes $500 damage) but doesn't take anything, it's called Vandalism.

And, 10/06/2011 When someone breaks a car window (only $200 damage this time) and takes two bags ($200 value), it's called Auto Burglary.
