Of All the Things to Steal from a Mercedes, a Thomas Guide?

By Misha Euceph

A burglar took two envelopes and a Thomas Guide Directory from a 1995 Mercedes by Yacht Club Way sometime between 10 p.m. on Friday Sept. 26 and 9:39 a.m. on Monday Sept. 29. The suspect did not take anything else and means of entering the vehicle are unknown.

Now this makes sense. Another Mercedes was burgled. This time, the perpetrator stole a Louis Vuitton purse, necklace, passports, checkbooks, vehicle key fob and spare change from a Mercedes parked on the block near Paulina. The burglar stole the items sometime between 10 a.m. on Saturday Sept. 27 and 1 p.m. on Sunday Sept. 28. The means of entering the car are unknown.

A 20-year-old man burglar stole from a home on Village Drive at 6:40 p.m. on Monday Sept. 29. He took a wallet, driver’s license, credit and debit cards and money by force before fleeing the house.

After coming into a local business by Kingsdale Blvd., two minors stole an item by removing the alarm from it and sneaking it out of the store. They were arrested at 11:26 a.m. on Saturday Sept. 27 and the item was returned to the store.
