Dunno where you live in Long Beach, but my sister who lives in Long Beach told us about a rash of robberies in her neighborhood (Bixby Knolls) around the same timeframe in early Feb.

They were systematically checking houses to see who was home, and had teams coordinating from the alleys in back and the front. My sister actually answered the door to one of them, who had some weird story. Later she talked to the police since they were buzzing around the neighborhood trying to catch these guys. The police said they'd been chasing these teams around off and on, and that they were coming from somewhere else in the city. Sounded like the teams would come back to houses several times, including my sister's, almost as if they were working off a checklist.

Several neighbors had similar incidents, and a few were robbed. This went on for a few weeks. My sister's family got a house alarm.

Anyway, this could be totally irrelevant, and it doesn't tell you anything about who would specifically take tikis, but just a little info.
