DENVER (KDVR) — Broomfield police are warning residents to secure belongings and make sure their doors are locked after a series of burglaries have been reported this week.

The trespasses and burglaries occurred in the area of Spruce Meadows near 152nd Avenue and Zuni Street, police said. The suspects are believed to be the same four-person crew that allegedly attempted break-ins and stole two cars from Cherry Hills Village last week.

The Broomfield Police Department said in a statement that at least one of the suspects was seen carrying a handgun.
