For the second time in less than a week, a multi-million dollar home in the upscale Encino neighborhood was hit by burglars. KTLA reports that possibly three suspects broke into the home on Edgerton Avenue shortly before 10 p.m. Monday. It's unclear if anything was taken, but the suspects were seen fleeing in a white Honda Accord.

The house, which was also burgled shortly after midnight on July 11, was empty at the time of the latest incident. During the first burglary, a woman, her grandchild, and a household employee were present and hid from the burglars as they ransacked a bedroom. The suspects, in realization that the residence was not abandoned, fled the scene without any reported physical injuries to the victims, according to NBC Los Angeles.

The Los Angeles Police Department has not made any arrests in connection with both break-ins, and the surveillance video capturing an SUV near the site of the first burglary has not led to any conclusive identification of the suspects, as detailed by KTLA.
