One occurred on the 1500 block of Ferry Street and one on the 1500 block of Lehigh Street. One caller reported that an unknown person(s) had entered the home between 0130 hours and 0930 hours, though an unsecured window and stole her purse. The caller also stated that the unknown person(s) had left through the rear door to the residence.

"The second caller reported that they were awoken when they heard a noise downstairs in their residence. The caller also reported that they went downstairs and observed both the front and back door to the residence were open. The caller reported that a screen in the window located to the rear of the residence had been push in and there was a chair underneath the window. The caller stated that the doors were locked to the residence. Nothing was reported taken from the residence.

  1. Who the hell doesn't lock their doors nowadays? I live in a quiet part of town, and my doors are locked even when I'm at home; my car doors are locked whenever I'm not in it.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
