Calgary police are making a plea to the public for information to help find the suspects in a series of residential break-ins earlier this month.

Investigators say the break-ins took place between Jan. 15 and Jan. 23, during the afternoon and evening hours, and the homes that were targeted were backing on to greenspaces, ravines, parks and golf courses in southwest and northwest Calgary.

In each incident, the homes were unoccupied and entry was typically gained by breaking rear doors or windows.

Once inside, the offenders stole high-value items, including jewelry, watches, purses, sunglasses and cash.
