Roseville Burglars Evade Police

Roseville, Calif. – Police officers searched the Crescendo Drive area extensively today after a resident reported an attempted burglary.  The officers were unable to locate the suspects at this time. 

A resident of the 1200 block of Crescendo Drive reported that shortly before 11 a.m.,  two men came to the door and rang the doorbell several times.  The resident did not talk to them or answer the door, and a few minutes later saw the same two men in the backyard, trying to get in through a sliding glass door.  When the men realized the resident was home, they fled on foot, last seen running south on Crescendo Drive toward West Whyte Avenue.
