San Francisco is seeing a sharp uptick in burglaries, according to police data, but in some neighborhoods the number of break-ins reported doubled since last year.

The city's Park District had a 100% jump in burglaries from Jan. 1 through Sept. 20 compared to the same time period last year. The area experienced 373 break-ins this year, more than double the 186 recorded in 2019, according to figures from the San Francisco Police Department.

The area covers the Haight and the surrounding neighborhood of the University of California, San Francisco.

In a statement to SFGate.com, the SFPD said it hasn't identified the cause of the increase. A police spokeswoman noted that people are home more when break-ins occur because of the coronavirus pandemic.

LOL. They haven't identified the cause of the increase. Really? Stevie Wonder could see the cause.

The residents are home, but they're still breaking in. No guns, I guess.

Call me Brenda Lee because I’m singing “So Sorry” and “You’re Breaking My Heart”.

In fact, this information has so inspired me that I’m writing a new song for SF entitled “Who Cares?”

The district attorney is Chesa Boudin since January 2020. His parents were Weather Underground members.
This guy is a leftist hack and has no use for Law and order so there is no wonder why crime has spiked because he does not prosecute it.

I looked up the San Francisco election results and he won 52% of the vote in the Haight Ashbury district and 56% of the vote in the Mission district which received an honorable mention down the article for having a 75% rise in crime. His nearest opponent received 31% and 25% in the same districts.

Ignoring the opportunities for fraud in an all-Democrat election, maybe the voters bear some responsibility for this situation (and maybe living around people who think the police should be abolished isn’t such a great idea).

That sounds like a pretty good number to me, because riots should likely bring it up many fold higher.

I guess broken windows aren’t “burglary.”
