Help me identify car and people who burglarized my in laws’ home

72 Upvotes

This is probably a long shot, but my in laws’ home got burglarized yesterday evening around 4pm. They ransacked the whole place and lost a lot of valuables. They were sophisticated — cut power and WiFi first, so we didn’t catch anything on the house cameras. They disguised themselves as gardeners/construction workers (2 men, 1 female, all Latino).

This happened in Rowland Heights, so maybe it makes sense to cross-post elsewhere too? (Welcome suggestions here)

Thank you so much. My in laws came here as immigrants, went through bankruptcy, and finally have a successful business the last few years and put so much into their home. Also just learned home insurance barely covers anything inside related to possessions. This makes me sick.

[Announcement] r/RowlandHeights is officially OPEN and public again! 🔓

27 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

If you’ve visited this subreddit over the last few years, you probably noticed it was locked down and restricted, making it pretty much impossible for anyone to post.

We have new moderators stepping up (and looking for more), and the very first thing on the agenda was flipping the switch back to Public. The doors are officially open, and everyone is welcome to post, comment, and share again!

We are looking to build a space for the Rowland Heights (and surrounding area!) to connect and have a reliable place to see what's actually happening around town.

Whether you’ve lived here for decades or just moved in, this is your community. To get things rolling, we would like to hear from you: What do you want to see in this subreddit?

  • Restaurant recommendations and new food spots opening up on Colima?

  • Traffic, construction, or local school district news?

  • Recommendations for local mechanics, contractors, or services?

  • A weekly "free talk" thread to just chat with neighbors?

Drop your ideas, suggestions, or just a quick "hello" in the comments below. In the coming weeks, we will be updating the community rules, adding some user flairs, and giving the page a bit of a facelift.

For now, the main rule is simple: be neighborly.

Welcome back, Rowland Heights!

Bring Back KJ Video!!!

On the corner of Fullerton Rd. And Colima. 2 doors down fe I m the 7-11. This place was the BEST!!! I would go with my mom to get her hair done at Zeasura next door just so I can wander the horror section if this place! My mind used to wander and guess what the movie was about or what kind of surprises were in store. I used to explore every inch of that store and get lost in all of the awesome straight-to-video movies they had an abundance of. Golden times!!

Thank god for Tubi which streams many of the gems that inhabited those shelves.

According to someone on Yelp, they closed back in 2022 due to the owner (?) not renewing their lease? Have they popped back up anywhere? I miss their chili cheese fries 😩

168 grocery store

My girlfriend and I went to the 168 grocery store on colima and fairway tonight around 6pm. She went to use the restroom and set her prada wallet down on top of the toilet paper roll dispenser. She somehow walked out without it. We didn't notice until about an hour later. We went back but no one turned it in. If you so happened to have found it, would you reach out please. Thanks

I need help finding a community for my Chinese dad, who is a stroke survivor.

17 Upvotes

I'm looking for recommendations to help my 71-year-old Taiwanese-American dad find a local community. He is a stroke survivor with limited mobility, and he speaks mostly Chinese (Mandarin/Taiwanese).

He has been experiencing heavy loneliness recently. My brother and live out of town (Vegas and SF) and his old friends have lost touch or live abroad. Any leads on Chinese-speaking senior centers, adult day programs, or cultural groups would be greatly appreciated! He can likely drive himself, but it would be nice to find transportation alternatives so he can safely stop driving.

Rowland Unified School District

12 Upvotes

I'm trying to learn more about the two candidates running for the Rowland Unified School District Area 5 seat: Kevin T. Hayakawa and Falynn Love Thompson.
I'm interested in hearing from people who have worked with them, attended candidate forums, followed local school board issues, or have firsthand knowledge of their backgrounds and qualifications.
Are there any notable accomplishments, concerns, or issues voters should be aware of? Are there major differences between the two candidates' visions for the district?
I'm looking for factual information and respectful discussion from people familiar with the candidates or local school district issues. Links to candidate statements, forum recordings, endorsements, or other reliable sources would also be appreciated.
Thanks in advance for helping me become a more informed voter.

Hey everyone! AMA - Rowland Heights Community Coordinating Council

12 Upvotes

Just wanted to post on here to introduce ourselves to some folks who may have never heard of us! My name is Brandon Macias, I'm the Vice President of the Rowland Heights Community Coordinating Council (the council responsible for representing the ~50,000 residents to LA County).

We've been around since the 1970s, we host the monthly town hall at the RH Community Center every 2nd Monday of the month, and we work with county to support and improve municipal services in the town. We've also been a massive organizer in the no-data center movement as the Council unanimously approved a resolution opposing City of Industry's data center.

Our Board has made it a priority to expand outreach as much as possible through social media so I thought it would be neat to do an AMA on the Rowland Heights reddit thread.

Feel free to ask us a question (I'll try my best to answer) or go through our website: Rowland-heights.com and learn more about us!

Can someone help alert the owner of Zhangliang Spicy Hotpot in Rowland Heights? Their website may be compromised

6 Upvotes

Hi everyone — hoping someone local can help with this.

I noticed that the website linked to Zhangliang Spicy Hotpot in Rowland Heights
(1380 Fullerton Rd #104) appears to have been compromised / hacked.

I’m not affiliated with the restaurant, and I’m not trying to sell them anything. I just happened to notice the issue while looking at the restaurant online, and I’m concerned customers clicking the website from Google could be exposed to something malicious.

I’m currently not able to call or visit the restaurant myself.

If anyone here happens to eat there or lives nearby, would you mind letting the owner or manager know that they should check their website ASAP?

Happy to DM screenshots/details of what I found if that helps.

Thanks!
