In the 1900 block of Ridgeland, a man heard his garage alarm go off. Looking out, he saw the overhead door was open, so he went outside to investigate. A white Astro van was parked in front of the garage. The victim told police he saw a male Hispanic standing by the van; when the stranger noticed the victim, he jumped into the driver’s seat and honked the horn, causing a second male Hispanic to exit the garage and join the first man in the van. The van fled northbound; part of the license plate read “H8”. Missing from the garage were a Craftsman air compressor, a boy’s bike and miscellaneous air tools.
