WPCNR POLICE GAZETTE. December 18, 2004. UPDATED December 21:  Police Spokesman Daniel Jackson confirmed that  White Plains Police are investigating what is believed to be a series of four burglaries in the Hartsdale Aveue-Midchester area of the Highlands Saturday evening. Inspector Jackson said two homes were burglarized on Hartsdale Avenue, another on Midchester, and a fourth on Ralph Avenue.

Jackson reports the break-ins took place between 7 and 10 P.M. Wednesday evening by "forcible entry" through doors and windows. Computer equipment, jewelry and cash were taken, and there appears to have been a vehicle involved considering the nature of the goods taken. He said the perpetrators do not appear to be professional.  Jackson said the three burglaries reported Saturday evening, and the fourth on Sunday evening.

The Inspector is asking any neighbors who noticed anything suspicious Saturday evening in that neighborhood, or anyone at all with information on the crimes to contact 422-6111 and report what they may have seen.

Inspector Jackson reminds citizens to keep homes securely locked, keep lights on in the house when you depart and keep eyes open to any goings on that appear in the least bit suspicious in your neighborhood. If you see something that does not look right, he urges you to report the incident to the police and they will investigate.
