Show Pellets and Plunder Plagues Police Weekend thieves struck the Lambert Automotive Repair and Parts Service at 1201 East on 21st South and made off with equipment equip-ment and supplies valued at approximately ap-proximately seventeen hundred dollars. Entrance to the garage at the rear of the store was made through a skylight in the roof which was easily accessible because of adjacent sheds. The thieves lowered themselves through the skylight onto a metal table directly under it, then opened the garage door and backed in a small truck and loaded it. A considerable con-siderable number of light tools that had been scattered around the garage were taken. In addition, heavy tools such as floor jacks, impact wrenches, and motors were missing. Also gone were 100 cases of Zerex, each ease containing six one gallon cans. Because of the small size of the footprints on the metal table, it is thought that young people could be implicated in the crime. The Sugar House Branch of the Walker Bank was the object of vandals sometime Saturday night. Two 12 by 12 heavy duty plate glass windows facing McClelland Street and valued at $200 dollars had what appeared to be 22 caliber bullet holes in them. Windows in the rear of the building build-ing also were damaged. One 6 by 6 window valued at about $75 had a hole in it the size of a soft ball. Another 3 by 5 bullet-proof plate glass window was damaged from rocks being thrown against it causing caus-ing chipping and scratching. In addition, a 12 by 6 window valued at $150 was damaged. An intoxicated man was picked up after exposing himself to three little girls aged 12 and 13 in the gully at the Country Club golf course. The act was also witnessed by two golfers. Local families had fixed the gully so that it might act as a playground play-ground for kiddies in the neighborhood. |
