Crime log provided by Lt. Duane D. Allen of the Altadena Sheriff's station, who also reminds us that theft-related crimes normally go up 12 percent between Thanksgiving and New Year's. Big targets are anything left in plain site in a vehicle or UPS/Fed Ex packages that are left on your porch, so be vigilant and careful this season.
