Residents of upscale St. Johns County neighborhood rattled by brazen car thefts

The St. Johns County Sheriff's Office is investigating at least 10 car burglaries and three vehicle thefts that happened in two parts of the county over the last two nights.

Police said the cars were stolen right off people's driveways. The suspect was caught on camera.

One of the cars stolen was Breanna Willman's 2016 white Mercedes C-Class.

"It's the kind of sense of the bubble bursting, the safety bubble bursting, that's a bit hard to swallow," Willman said.

Willman, who has lived at the St. Johns Golf and Country Club neighborhood for six years, said she's never had any problems there. 

"We came out this morning, and there were tire tracks in the grass leading to our mailbox that was knocked over," said Willman.

If anyone spots Willman's car, it will have rear damage and two car seats inside. 

"The officer said that we were the second car reported stolen and it was sixth incident that he had fielded," Willman said.

A 2003 black Honda Pilot was stolen nearby as well.

The St. Johns County Sheriff's Office shared a surveillance image of one of the people believed to be behind the crimes. The suspect's hoodie has some sort of design on the back.

In the last two nights, authorities have worked four car break-ins on Durbin Parke Drive and a stolen rental vehicle on Bartram Parke Drive. The rental car is described as a grey 2016 Chrysler 300 with a Louisiana tag of N436440.

According to police all the cars that were vandalized were unlocked.

At least two handguns were also reported stolen.

"This was intentional, this was planned, and it was carried out with precision," Willman said.

Willman said she had left a spare key inside the car, which made it easier for her to be targeted. She also left her wallet in the car. Because her wallet was stolen, Willman \had to cancel her credit cards.

Willman said she's now considering getting security cameras.
