Three Men in Custody for a Bank-Jugging Style Burglary

Irvine, Calif. (July 9, 2025) – Three men are in custody after committing a vehicle burglary yesterday and may be connected to additional bank-jugging cases.

A nationwide trend known as “bank-jugging,” involves suspects surveilling banks and watching for customers who withdraw cash. They then follow the victims to their next stop and burglarize the vehicle to steal the money.
