Easter weekend sees a spate of break-ins and larcenies, keeping the Police busy

During what many hoped would have been a peaceful holiday
weekend, the Police have reported a spate of break-ins and
larcenies.

A beauty store, “Everything Hair” on Old Parham Road, was
reportedly broken into some time between Saturday, March 30
and Monday, April 1.

The owner of the business reported that she returned to the store
on Monday to find the building ransacked and a quantity of wigs
and braids missing.

It appeared that the screen was removed from a southern push-
up window, which was left opened.

Meanwhile, two house break-ins and larcenies have been
reported in Willikies.

Some time between 10 p.m. on Sunday, March 31, and the
morning hours of Monday, April 1, an intruder or intruders made
off with a cell phone, $300 and US$120 from one home in that
village.

It is believed that the perpetrator removed a mosquito screen from
a western kitchen window and then removed five panes of louvre
glass to gain entry into the Willikies home.

The other home was reportedly broken into some time between
5:30 p.m. on Sunday, March 31, and 9 a.m. on Monday, April 1.
Reports indicate that a northern kitchen push-up window was left
open and the perpetrator or perpetrators removed the screen and
subsequently made off with a cell phone, an Internet modem, and
$200.
 
And in other break-ins over the holidays, a Golden Grove New
Extension home was burglarized between 5 a.m. and 2 p.m. on
Monday, April 1.

The perpetrator or perpetrators allegedly used a hard object to
destroy a lock on a metal door on the southern side of the house.

The house was ransacked, but, according to police reports,
nothing was stolen.

Meanwhile, a residence on Central Street Villa was reportedly
broken into some time between 6:30 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Monday,
April 1.

The homeowner has reported a bluetooth speaker and jewelry
items of unknown value as missing.

Reports indicate that the perpetrator entered the dwelling by
prying open a wooden bedroom window shutter.
All matters are currently under investigation.
