30 Vehicles Broken Into In Windsor: Reports

WINDSOR, CT — Police are investigating after 30 cars were broken into in the early morning hours on Thursday, according to media reports.

A witness told police that several men wearing masks broke several car windows and departed in a stolen Range Rover, NBC CT reported. The Range Rover was stolen from a home on Joshua Hill, NBC CT reported.
