star_120Through the month of September streets along Auburn Road have been targeted apparently by young people vandalizing or stealing items from vehicles parked at homes and businesses.  Wednesday the Tompkins County Sheriff's Department was inundated by calls from victims whose cars had been rifled Tuesday night.  Department representative told victims that three young people had been picked up Wednesday morning, and the department was looking for more.  Both the Sheriff's Department and State Police continued to investigate, interviewing victims throughout the day.

Tuesday's rash of break-ins took place along Searles Road.  Police said that in most cases the perpetrators were looking for loose change, but other items were taken including keys, registration and insurance certificates, and a laptop computer.  On Friday keys were taken from a Bobcat loader near Searles Road, and earlier in the month incidents of vandalism in the Buck Road area were reported.
