Police said they received a report of another burglary that happened on the same same two days earlier. A pendant worth about $10,000 was stolen from that home along with numerous silver coins and a gold wedding band.
Police said about 10 break-ins have been reported between mid-February and late March. No one has been arrested in connection to any of the break-ins.
