CARY, N.C. — A burglary in Cary has been potentially linked to a crime organization, according to legal documentation found by WRAL News on Friday.
The home on Kimbolton Drive, not far from Walnut Street and Cary Towne Boulevard, was broken into in February.
At the time, the victim said an unknown person or multiple people had entered her home while she was gone and stolen some of her property.
She later discovered her WiFi router had been disconnected, disabling doorbell and security cameras – leaving no video available to help identify potential suspects.
A group of individuals from South America has actively been breaking into residences in Cary, as well as multiple neighborhoods around the Triangle and in nearby states, according to a probable cause affidavit.
“The facts surrounding this burglary are similar to previous burglaries which have been identified as being perpetrated by this group, however no suspects from the group have been positively identified in this case,” the affidavit reads.
Part of the group’s pattern involves researching target homes with “high yield potential,” then disconnecting internet service and phone lines.
The affidavit says the thieves likely searched for the address in the days leading up to the burglary, then used the internet to search for directions to and from the home.
