"The first burglary was called into the police at 9:26 p.m., authorities said. A woman in her thirties reported that two masked people opened the side gate of her house on the 3900 block of Nelson Drive and entered with flashlights. The suspects then smashed the house's glass back door. When officers arrived, they saw two people entering a dark-colored vehicle and leaving the scene. As police tried to stop the vehicle, it fled "at a high rate of speed.""
"The second report of a burglary was called in at 9:34 p.m., authorities said. A man in his forties had returned to his house on the 400 block of El Capitan Place and found that it had been torn apart. He heard a noise, and his child reported seeing a suspect crawl on the ground, prompting the family to leave the house and call authorities."
"The response was also assisted by the San Jose Police Department, which sent a helicopter, and the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office, which sent a K9, authorities added. The investigation found that the suspect had smashed the glass rear door to enter, authorities said. They do not yet know whether the suspects stole any items. A third burglary was reported at 10:15 p.m. occurring on 1000 block of Cardinal Way, authorities said. This time, the suspect entered the house by smashing a rear window while the resident was not home. The resident reported that "several items" of jewelry were stolen, authorities added."
