South Street, S. Main Street Homes Broken Into

The Hightstown Borough Police Department are investigating several home and car burglaries that took place last week in the area of South Main Street and South Street. 

Two homes located on the 100 block of South Street were illegally entered between July 27 and July 29, according to police. No items were stolen from the first home and there were no signs of forced entry, police said. However, the second home was forcibly entered and had approximately $1,000 worth of items taken, including a variety of jewelry and electronics, according to police. 

A third home on the 400 block of South Main Street was also the target of a theft as clothing was stolen during this same period. Yet, the home exhibited no signs of a break-in, according to police. On the same block on July 29 between midnight and 1:30 a.m., burglars attempted to break into another home, but were unsuccessful, police said. 

Also during the early morning hours of July 29, four unlocked cars on South Street and South Main Street were burglarized. Nothing was taken from the cars, but the inside items were in disarray, according to police. 

Anyone with information on any of these break-ins and thefts may contact Detective Frank Jiminez of the Hightstown Borough Police Department at 609-448-1234 ext. 538.
