>>> FAMILIES IN SAN JOSE ARE SPENDING THEIR DAY CLEANING UP AFTER VANDALS TARGETED A NEIGHBORHOOD IN WILLOW GLEN OVERNIGHT. YOU SEE RIGHT HERE, BREAKING CAR WINDOWS. TAKING WHATEVER THEY COULD FIND. AND AT LEAST ONE VICTIM TELLS US THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME. NBC BAY AREA'S DAMIAN TRUJILLO HAS THE STORY YOU WILL SEE ONLY ON NBC BAY AREA. >> Reporter: THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS YEAR THERE HAS BEEN MASS CAR VANDALISM REPORTED IN WILLOW GLEN AND RESIDENTS DON'T KNOW WHERE TO TURN. YOU HEAR A CAR ALARM. >> ANGER, IRRITATION, VIOLATION. >> Reporter: RICHARD RYAN IS ONE OF MORE THAN A DOZEN PEOPLE WHOSE VEHICLES WERE VANDALIZED OVERNIGHT ON KOCH LANE. HE IS VISITING FROM OREGON AND HAD SPENT THE MORNING PUTTING BLASTIC ON THE DOOR IN CASE HE CAN'T GET A REPAIR MADE IN TIME. >> TO VISIT FAMILY FOR CHRISTMAS. >> WELCOME TO SAN JOSE. >> YEA. SAN JOSE IS A LOVELY PLACE. BUT THIS SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING. >> Reporter: WE FOUND MARIA VACUUMING THE SHATTERS GLASS OUT OF HER CAR. >> NOW WE HAVE TO CLEAN UP. CALL INSURANCE. IT'S A LOT OF STUFF. >> Reporter: THE VANDALS HIT HER NEIGHBOR'S MERCEDES ACROSS THE STREET. SURVEILLANCE VIDEO SHOWED THE VANDALS CASING SEVERAL CARS BEFORE SMASHING THE WINDOW. IN THAT CASE, THEY TOOK TWO DOLLARS. IT'S THE SECOND TIME RAFI HAS BEEN HIT IN JUST OVER A YEAR. >> IT IS FRUSTRATING. THERE IS NO ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THESE GUYS. SO SOMETHING HAS TO CHANGE. >> Reporter: THE CROOKS ALSO TRIED HIS NEIGHBORS DENALI, BUT THEY COULDN'T BREAK THE TEMPERED GLASS. WHILE WE COUNTED A DOZEN VEHICLES HIT, AS OF THIS MORNING, SAN JOSE POLICE SAID THEY HAVE ONLY RECEIVED ONE ONLINE REPORT OF VANDALISM IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. >> WHAT'S THE POINT OF FILING A REPORT AT THIS POINT? NOTHING IS GOING TO HAPPEN. PROPERTY CRIMES THAT UNLESS IT IS SOMETHING MAJOR. NOTHING WILL HAPPEN. I MEAN, THERE'S OTHER THINGS THE POLICE ARE HAVING TO DEAL WITH. >> Reporter: NOT THE EXPECT OR THE HEADACHE MANY IN WI
