Identity Theft: 4 Characteristics of a Home Burglar Everyone Should Know About

Based on well-known home burglary movies like Home Alone, it can sometimes make it difficult for us as homeowners to discern real threats to your "fortress" versus what thieves appear to look like in the movies...

So we at The Bulldog Bar are here to help you better understand what actual residential crooks are like.

With that being said, here are 4 characteristics of a home burglar everyone should know about: 

-- 56% of burglars are Caucasian. Sometimes we may envision burglars to be of completely different ethnic backgrounds, but more than half of house invaders (based on recent statistics) show that intruders are actually Caucasian. Keep this in mind when stereotyping alleged "suspicious activity" in your neighborhood.

-- 95% of burglars are male. More than 9 times out of 10...the person or persons who break into your humble abode are men. While it may seem to some that women are just as capable at committing this crime, in most cases residential burglaries are executed by...you guessed it...dudes!

-- 67% of burglars do NOT break into houses armed with a weapon. While it may appear that "housebreakers" are armed and dangerous when busting down doors or windows on your territory, almost 70% of the time...they have no ammunition of the sort on hand. This means if you happen to be home during the of the alleged incident, call police IMMEDIATELY, and do what you think is necessary out of self-defense.

-- 63% of burglaries take place during the daytime. Whether it was the movies that has given us the impression that home break-ins happen during evening hours, more than 6 out of every 10 burglaries actually take effect when the sun is out. All the more reason to protect your home sweet home more effectively with an amazing, high-quality device, right?!
