Police want to alert residents to recent break-ins

NORWICH – The Norwich Police Department is currently investigating two burglaries in the city and wants to alert residents in the area.
On Sunday, police responded to a burglary that took place on Fair Street and then again on Monday to another break-in on Locust Street.
“What makes this particularly notorious is the fact these crimes took place in someone’s home,” said Police Chief Joseph Angelino.
Police said no one was home during either break-in and that thieves disturbed a number of items in the homes, indicating they spent a length of time searching through them.
Police would not elaborate on how the homes were broken into, but said some force was used. Some of the property stolen included cash, a flat screen TV and tobacco products.
“Officers have been canvassing the neighborhood, talking to residents in attempts to locate any witnesses. There are always plenty of eyes watching, we just need to locate the right person who may not realize what they saw is important to us,” Angelino said.
Homeowners are encouraged to take precautions by making sure their homes are locked whenever they leave, even for short periods of time. Police also recommend installing night time motion sensor lights.
“Neighbors need to watch out for neighbors. Folks usually know when something or someone appears out of place around their home,” Angelino said. “I urge you to call the police when you are suspicious; it’s not a bother to us, that’s what we are here for.”
The Norwich Police Department can be reached at 334-2424.
