Cars Entered Overnight, Items Stolen, Police Seek Info from Night Owls

There was a rash of car break-in overnight on Monday night and Tuesday morning in Marblehead, according to Marblehead police.

Police are asking residents to check their vehicles and “take a close look to see if any of your property has gone missing overnight.”

The streets where break-ins were reported include Evans Road, Guernsey Street, Lincoln Avenue, Litchman Terrace, Susan Road and Taft Street.

It is the second time in as many weeks where cars were entered overnight and items were taken. Last Monday night and Tuesday morning, cars were entered on several streets, including Evans Road, Harris Street, Roosevelt Avenue and Shepard Street. Items such as glasses and GPS devices were taken.

Anyone who thinks their car was entered overnight are asked to avoid touching anything and call police at 781-631-1212.

Police are also asking anyone who was “up and about overnight” to report anything that may have seen or heard that “seemed odd.”

“It’s possible you might have information that could assist with the investigations but just not realize it,” police said in a community alert posted to Facebook. “No piece of information is too small or trivial.”

Police also encourage residents to take valuable items out of their vehicle and bring it inside at night.

“While each and every one of us should be able to leave our hard earned property in our cars and have it there in the morning, that is not the world we live in,” police said.
