Burglar Gets Through Open Garage Window, Confronted by Resident
|
A resident of a home on Pleasant Street yelled a burglar rummaging around in a vehicle parked in the garage late at night on Saturday, Feb. 21, then locked the door leading into the house and called police. When police arrived, the burglar was gone, out the open window that had been used to get into the garage. Police found a bicycle stuck half-way out the window, apparently in an attempt to steal it as the burglar fled. The incident occurred during a week when unlocked vehicles were being entered by thieves overnight in the same area.
