BOSTON (WHDH) - Residents in Brighton are taking extra precautions and the Boston Police Department is sounding the alarm after a series of brazen break-ins, some of which were caught on camera.

The department is urging all residents to remain vigilant and take proactive measures to protect their property. Ensure that all doors and windows are securely locked at all times, and consider installing additional security measures such as motion-sensor lights, alarm systems, and cameras.

On Wednesday afternoon, the department shared images and video and a person of interest they’re looking to identify in connection with two recent incidents. It is unknown if this same individual is involved in all incidents.

If you have any information, please contact District D-14 Detectives at (617) 343-4256.
