HOUSTON<\/strong> – A man with a long history of burglaries is wanted for more burglaries in the Houston area.<\/p>\n Houston crime: Serial burglar wanted What we know:<\/p>\n According to his criminal history, Steven Campbell has been in and out of prison since 1977. It’s all for the same crime: Burglary of a habitation.\u00a0<\/p>\n “He’s a serial burglar,” said Precinct 1 Constable Alan Rosen. “That’s what he’s known for. All of his cases involve burglary.”<\/p>\n Court records say Campbell has been sentenced to prison for a total of 267 years.<\/p>\n “This time, I really hope the system kinda keeps him a bit,” Rosen said. “The last stint that he did, he did 13 years in prison, got out, and started doing the same exact thing.”<\/p>\n Lock your doors <\/p>\n Why you should care:<\/p>\n Constable Rosen says Campbell reportedly makes entry through unlocked doors and windows.\u00a0<\/p>\n “He walks down the street, sees if car doors are open, sees if a house door is open, sees if a garage is open, and then will go in there and burglarize,” he says.<\/p>\n FOX 26 reporter Randy Wallace spoke to a Montrose homeowner who captured Campbell on his security camera stealing his wife’s bike from their garage.<\/p>\n “We have a detached garage, and there’s a side door, and we left the door unlocked,” the homeowner said.<\/p>\n The homeowner, who wished to remain anonymous, said the burglar used a ladder to climb up and move a security camera. A surveillance photo shows the burglar wearing the homeowner’s wife’s helmet while he’s on the ladder.<\/p>\n It’s believed he then stole the bike, threw it over a fence, then used the ladder to escape.<\/p>\n Two hours later, detectives say Campbell can be seen selling the bike at a pawn shop some 10 minutes from where he stole it. The homeowner says they got the bike back two days later.<\/p>\n What you can do:<\/p>\n Anyone with information should contact the Precinct 1 Constables Office, specifically Detective Joseph Bowden, by emailing Joseph.Bowden@cn1.hctx.net<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Source:<\/b> Information in this report comes from court records, the Harris County Precinct 1 Constable’s Office, and a burglary victim.<\/p>\n Crime and Public Safety<\/a>Houston<\/a>Heights<\/a>Montrose<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"HOUSTON – A man with a long history of burglaries is wanted for more burglaries in the Houston…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":74312,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5130],"tags":[6082,24015,4345,10447,50,358,3187,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-74311","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-houston","8":"tag-crime-publicsafety","9":"tag-heights","10":"tag-houston","11":"tag-montrose","12":"tag-news","13":"tag-texas","14":"tag-tx","15":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/114877688921663618","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74311","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=74311"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/74311\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/74312"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=74311"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=74311"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=74311"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/serial-burglar.jpg\")
