The man jumped into a gold, four-door car occupied by two other men and took off south down South Kingman. The resident then found that the driver's side door lock of his 2006 Infiniti G35 was damaged, but nothing was taken.
• Shortly before midnight, a white 2004 Nissan Maxima parked on the street on Halsey Place was broken into, and the owner's manual, registration and insurance card were taken.

He also noticed a white 2008 BMW with door-lock damage further along Church Street, but it didn't appear to have been broken into.
