It looks like there's a serial hotel robber on the loose in Miami and he's brazen enough to break into the guest rooms while the guests are in there. NBC reports that the thief recently struck The Chesterfield Hotel on 8th and Collins Avenue last Saturday:
The thief struck during the early morning hours, while the guest were asleep, breaking in through a window in a room and going through the victims' belongings. He made off with $5,000, an iPhone and credit cards.
This thief is believed to be the same person who's been robbing guests at other smaller hotels in Miami like the Catalina Hotel, The Shelly Hotel, The Dorchester, National and Avalon. Police also believe he's been doing it since 2006.
So if you're headed to Miami and would like not to be robbed, pick a bigger hotel with better security. It may cost you a bit more money but it's worth it. Otherwise, lock your windows, bolt your doors, lock your valuables in the safe and don't leave anything out on tables or dressers that might catch the eye of a thief.
But until this man is caught--for real and not just on a security camera--we hope these Miami hotels do their part to beef up security for the guests.
