At approximately 4:15PM, suspects driving a black Honda sedan with tinted windows attempted to enter a 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2018 BMW X5 on Colony Drive. Both attempts failed as vehicles were secured.
 
At approximately 11:55PM, a Wallace Road resident observed a light-colored sedan without headlights park across the street from their property.
