The Alexandria Police Department is currently investigating multiple break-ins and the reported theft of more than $11,000 in jewelry and cash from two vehicles parked in the garage of a luxury apartment building in the 4900 block of Seminary Road in Alexandria’s West End.
Details on the incidents were released Monday in a search warrant affidavit, allowing APD to recover video surveillance footage from the parking garage.
