Break In on Locust St

[Jodi Jones]

Apartment on corner of Locust and Earnest (on second floor of house) was broken into today while student was at class, sometime between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. Smashed in window for entry and rooms torn apart but appears all that is missing is laptop. Keep your eyes open!

I also heard last night that there were two other break-ins that happened:

- 9:30am at the corner of Maple and Southwest. 3 males, 14-16 years old, 2 were Caucasian and one was African American with cornrows. A neighbor saw them, confronted them and they ran away

- 600 block of Pine street, Ken Harrison's house. Based on evidence at the scene, it appears to be the same group.

The neighbor that confronted the kids, stated that he's seen them walking up and down the block, before this happened. Watch for them and call the police if you see a group during the day that matches their description. These guys should be easy to spot.

I saw these juveniles while walking my dog and can identify them. Thought it odd that they were walking in two groups on opposite sides of the Pine Street but obviously not college students or residents. Guess I should have gone with my gut.
