Brazen Bay-area burglars in a Lexus filmed breaking into line of cars one after the other in broad daylightBy Marjorie Hernandez

Brazen bay-area burglars were filmed making a series of smash-and-grabs from a line of parked cars in broad daylight — with no sign of any police response.
Completely unbothered by bystanders, the Lexus-driving criminals went along the line of cars near San Francisco’s Fisherman’s Warf smashing windows and pillaging the contents before moving onto the next, as captured on video by a reporter from local TV station KTVU.
One of the vehicles targeted by the burglars even had a person sitting in the back, but he still snatched the victim’s bag before taking off.
“It’s called ‘bipping and boosting,'” San Francisco Police Lt.Tracy McCray told The Post, referring to the slang term for the smash and grab incidents which are plaguing the Bay Area.
“It really exploded during the pandemic so much so that someone told me that the sidewalks are glistening and sparkling [with glass from windows] where cars are broken into left and right.
