Six people were arrested in Burbank for a string of Southern California residential burglaries that have taken place in recent months, police said on Friday.

Burbank Police Department officers, working with San Bernardino County Sheriff's Department deputies, said that an investigation into a residential burglary that happened in June led them to arrest six people linked to a South American theft group.

"Detectives and SBSD Detectives served a search warrant at the 7th floor apartment, and they found it unoccupied," said a social media post from BPD. "Detectives quickly realized that the four suspects fled out of the rear 7th story balcony and tight roped across a narrow ledge to a neighboring apartment balcony!"
