Break-ins, suspicious activity report numbers grow in Edgefield neighborhood


web posted December 11, 2009
EDGEFIELD – An unknown person seems to be targeting the homes on West Terrace and Gray Streets in Edgefield, according to recent police reports. Multiple reports show suspicious activity, break-ins, someone banging on doors and the sides of the houses, and property being moved around inside and outside of the homes.

One of the victims stated to EdgefieldDaily.com that her repeated problems have taken place for over six months causing her to change the locks on the doors, but the problems continue.

This week alone there have been two break-ins and one report of loud noises at the homes. On Sunday one woman returned home with friends after going to the parade and found the side door of the home forced open. Nothing in the home appeared to be missing. Later Sunday evening Edgefield Police were called back to the home after the owner and friends returned from going out to eat to find the front door of the home open.

The woman stated she was sure she locked the door and checked it before leaving after the first break-in. She reported that a picture in the front of the home had been moved as well as a pillow on her bed.

On Wednesday a home on Gray Street reported a break-in just before 10 pm when the woman living at that home said she came home and later discovered a window broken out in the kitchen and a door pried open, reports state. The only thing reported missing from the home was personal clothing items, two of which were found in the back yard.

Early Thursday morning, two neighbors on Gray Street reported hearing loud noises outside and called each other to see if the other was okay. Police were called and were told by the two women they both heard the noise and that a light on the back of one home with a motion detector was activated.

Nothing appeared to have been tampered with.

Edgefield Police have stepped up patrols in the area and an investigation is ongoing. No description of a possible suspect was available.
