We were broken into on Francesca Ave. Screen was cut and window forced open. 2 laptops, ipod and camcorder were stolen. We are still looking for anything else missing.
The break in happened between 2:30 and 5:00 pm. We are very surprised as our 80 pound dog was at home, and the radio was on upstairs. I usually work from home but was at a client meeting this afternoon.

there's a crime and safety group serving the greater Davis Square area that's been around since the summer of 2007. we haven't had a meeting in a while, but you're welcome to join the mailing list by sending email to watch-subscribe@vecna.org (mailto:watch-subscribe@vecna.org).
in the past we've met with Chief Holloway to talk about the City's new community policing plans, heard presentations from Somerville PD about burglary and car break-in prevention, and seen ResiStat presentations about how much crime really occurs around Davis Square, where specifically, and of what sort.
we're currently trying to work with the Somerville Dog Owners Group (http://www.somdog.org) in order to help dog owners and local business owners work together to address public safety issues. if you'd be interested in working on this project, or just learning a bit more about what's going on, please come to this evening's DARBI meeting, 7 pm at Green Tomato II (former site of Boloco).
to the OP: i'm sorry to hear about your break-in :( it seems to fit the standard template of residential burglaries; i hope you have reported it to Somerville PD.
