The string of break-ins plaguing residents continues. Just before 11 a.m., a Grandview Avenue caller reported someone had broken into her parents’ garage overnight.
She wasn’t sure what was missing as she hadn’t had time to speak with her father, as he was at the doctor’s office.
Later that day at 5:30 pm, a neighbor spotted a man breaking into a house in the 1600 block of High Street. Officers arrested a man with an open warrant from the Scioto County Sheriff’s Office.
However, the jail refused to book him due to some issues with his leg. The man agreed to go to the hospital for treatment.
At 8:30 p.m., a caller reported someone stole his motorcycle from the corner of Mound and Grant Streets. Officers took information for a report.
