Factory Road business and Scotts Hill school entered and ransacked, with small returns for intruders

A business and a school were the targets of thieves, who made off
with small amounts of cash and other items.
 
Reports say that a Skerritts Pasture man, the owner of a Factory
Road business, telephoned the Criminal Investigations Department
(CID) and reported that his place had been broken into and
ransacked by a known male.


Allegedly, by using a hard implement to pry open a southern door,
the intruder had gained entry into the business. He then ransacked
the premises and stole some sodas in the process.
 
A search was carried out for the alleged offender initially, but
without success.
 
This offence reportedly occurred sometime between 6:22 p.m. and
11:50 p.m. on February 18.
 
Meanwhile, the principal of Kids Unlimited also contacted the CID,
reporting that the school had been burglarized and its INET Internet
box and $20 in cash stolen.
 
This offence reportedly occurred sometime between 5:30 p.m. on
February 27 and 7:15 a.m. on February 28 at Scotts Hill.
 
Reportedly, the intruder entered the principal’s office by removing
five panes of louvre glass from a northern bathroom window. The
office was ransacked, as well as the Grade 2 classroom and the
cafeteria.
 
The money and the Internet box reportedly were removed from the
office and the classroom, respectively.
