When police arrived at the front of an Andrews Drive home a little after 8:42 p.m. on Friday, they saw the front door had been split open, with the door’s deadbolt lock still intact and attached to the frame. But it appeared nothing was disturbed inside the home — police suspect the burglar or burglars who broke in were scared when the alarm sounded. At about 8:15 p.m., the alarm company had called a relative of the couple who live there (and who were away from home); he went to the house and called police.

A burglar first smashed the electric meter on an outside wall of a home on Highfield Lane at about 5:30 p.m., Saturday and then forced his way through a door to get in — but an elderly resident inside saw him then run away from the house, police said. Police gave this further account:

The elderly resident, a 79-year-old woman, told police that power was suddenly cut to the house, and she heard a loud crash. When she went to see what was wrong, she saw through a front window a male running away. The only description of the male that she could give police was that he was wearing a light-colored top. She didn’t see a vehicle.
