A burglar makes off with a slew of electronics on Llanberris Road while the family sleeps upstairs.

A large amount of electronics were stolen from a home on the unit block of Llanberris Road while the family was home and asleep, police said.

A neighbor was outside at 7:45 a.m. on Oct. 27, when she saw credit cards and blank checks in the bushes outside her home, police said.

The woman recognized the names on the credit cards as those belonging to the family next door.  The woman returned the credit cards, and that’s when the family began to check the house.
