I spy

4:09 p.m. — First Block of Fair Oaks Circle. Burglary. The witness said that someone had climbed onto the roof of the aluminum porch where his girlfriend lives, using a garbage can, causing $1,000 in damage. The suspect also entered the porch, but the witness said he did not believe access was made into the home. Two bicycles on the porch were not disturbed.

He said his girlfriend has not been there for two days because she has been staying at his home. He thinks her ex-boyfriend climbed onto the porch, trying to spy on them.

The officer is seeking to contact the girlfriend to see if she can provide more information, and if she wants to pursue charges.
