Authorities in Oregon have apprehended four Colombian nationals suspected of being involved in a series of home burglaries targeting affluent Asian-American households. The Tigard Police Department (TPD) confirmed that the arrests were made in connection with 39 burglary cases that began in late September.
According to investigators, the suspects employed a similar break-in method in each of the incidents. In response to the escalating number of burglaries, a warning was issued in November to residents across three jurisdictions, including Tigard, Washington County, and Beaverton.
