Message from the San Mateo County Sheriff's Office 

On Wednesday April 1, 2015, San Mateo County Sheriff's Deputies of the San Carlos Patrol Bureau respond to three separate construction site burglaries  that occurred during the night.  In all three thefts, the suspects took various  electric construction tools, such as table saws, drills, nail guns and some hand tools.  In all of the thefts, the tools were left unsecured inside the residence or garage. Similar crimes occurred this week in Burlingame and Hillsborough

The Sheriff's Office would like to warn contractors and residents that any type of construction equipment and tools that need to be left on the job site should be placed in locked containers or secured by other means.

Your general liability policy does not provide coverage for theft of tools and equipment. A separate equipment policy must be purchased in order to cover your tools and equipment in the event of a theft loss.  These policies can be purchased for as low as $350.00.
