Drivers find their parked cars damaged and ransacked in Pelham Parkway section of the Bronx

PELHAM PARKWAY, Bronx (WABC) -- Several drivers in one Bronx neighborhood found their cars damaged and ransacked in an apparent string of vehicle break-ins.

Video shows the cars along Bronx Park East with their windows smashed open as a result of the incident.

One car owner, William Aguirre, told Eyewitness News the suspected thieves grabbed whatever was in his vehicle. He says this act of vandalism is hurting hardworking families.

"We work -- my wife is a nurse, every day she needs this car. She can receive a call at any moment to go to the hospital, go anywhere," Aguirre said.

Aguirre says that car break-ins occur often in his neighborhood.
