comes after the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/us\/us-regions\/west\/california\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">San Jos\u00e9<\/a> Police Department on Thursday responded to a neighborhood on the east side of the city.<\/p>\n<p>Officers learned burglars hid a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/tech\/technologies\/cameras\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">camouflaged camera<\/a> in the bushes outside a home before fleeing the scene.<\/p>\n<p>The homeowner later discovered the camera, and it was collected by police.<\/p>\n<p><a

rel=\"noopener\">the camera<\/a> was attached to a power bank and positioned facing the house, presumably to monitor the residents in preparation for a burglary or other criminal activity.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>SJPD Burglary Unit detectives opened an investigation, later finding a second camouflaged device near the area of where the first camera was located.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The second device is believed to be a Wi-Fi powered device, according to officials.<\/p>\n<p><a

tactics used to case unoccupied homes, signifying a trend.<\/p>\n<p>Suspects are known to plant hidden surveillance devices, or pose as delivery service providers or landscapers to determine when homes are unoccupied before <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/category\/crime\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">committing burglaries.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;As a reminder, remaining vigilant and reporting suspicious activity helps keep our neighborhoods safe,&#8221; the agency wrote in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>Authorities also said to watch out for people ringing doorbells to see if anyone answers, packages left at doors to test whether a home is vacant, and unfamiliar vehicles or people repeatedly passing by a house.<\/p>\n<p>If a homeowner finds a suspicious device, the department said not to touch it and call law enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>No arrests have been made in the recent San Jos\u00e9 case, according to the department.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a
