Between 1 a.m. and noon on May 2, someone entered a residence in the 100 block of East Alegria Avenue through an unlocked sliding glass door on
the side of the structure. The suspect(s) took a laptop computer and other
small electronic devices then exited through the same door. The investigation revealed the suspect (s) may have made entry attempts at three other window locations as screens had been removed and dirt on the window sills disturbed. A neighbor reported a work crew in the area that morning and police are pursuing that lead.
