New video footage obtained by CP24 shows the attempted theft of a vehicle in a North York driveway earlier this month that was ultimately interrupted by police.
The situation unfolded outside a home in the Bathurst Street and Glencairn Avenue area in the early morning hours of March 9.
The surveillance footage shows an individual wearing grey pants approaching a black Jeep Wrangler parked in the driveway of the home. The person appears to briefly peer inside the vehicle before walking away.
Jenna, who lives at the house with her family, told CP24.com that they received a notification on their devices from their private security provider about the activity on their driveway at the time but didn’t think anything of it initially as there was nobody in sight.
CP24 is only identifying Jenna by her first name due to concerns about her safety.
About three hours later, shortly after 4 a.m., Jenna said that another notification came in on their devices with footage showing a person opening the hood of their Jeep and unplugging some fuses.
This individual is then seen jimmying the door lock on the vehicle’s passenger side before leaving the scene.
