Thousands of Dollars Worth of Items Stolen in Burglary

A Park View Lane couple came home to a crime scene at 6:14 p.m. Monday. They entered their house through the garage and walked into the kitchen, where they noticed the window over the sink had been smashed with shards of glass all over the counter and kitchen island, police said.

The husband checked his children's bedrooms and the master bedroom, which he found ransacked, then he got out of the house with his wife and called police, according to the report.

Among the items reported stolen were two of the children's $400 i-Pads, four watches valued at $2,000 a piece from a bureau in the master bedroom, a Coach wallet containing $1,000 cash from the daughter's bedroom bureau and a wallet containing $1,500 cash from the son's nightstand.

Other items, such as two laptop computers, firearms and the wife's purse and jewelry box, were not taken, police said.

Police said the burglary took place sometime between 8 a.m., when the couple had left their home, and around 6:14 p.m., the time of the report.
