            Sometime before 9:11 a.m. on July 21, a
            burglary occurred at Lincoln Junior High School, 208 Broadway St. in
            Lincoln. Unknown person(s) broke a window on the third floor and
            gained access to the building. Unknown person(s) went through the
            school and caused damage and vandalism to the school property.
            Late
            Sunday night and early Monday morning, March 18 and 19, someone
            stole items from five different Lincoln vehicles.The
            first vehicle was parked at a residence on the 1800 block of Pekin.
            A $175 radar detector was taken from the car.
 In
            one of the Lincoln Christian College parking lots, change was stolen
            from an automobile.
 On
            the 200 block of Mayfield, several items totaling $75 were stolen
            from a car parked at the owners residence: a book binder, school
            books, homework, a calculator, a learner's permit and some change.
 The
            next vehicle was parked inside a garage on the 900 block of N.
            McLean. The owner remembers locking the garage door. A portable CD
            player, which is worth about $100, was taken from the vehicle.
 The
            last theft was from a car parked at the owners residence. A $50
            AM/FM CD player was stolen.
 There
            are no suspects at this time, but due to the timing of the crimes it
            is believed that they may be connected. If you have any information
            about these thefts, please contact the Lincoln Police Department at
            732-2151, or Crime Stoppers at 732-3000.
            A
            series of thefts in the early morning hours of Thursday, March 15,
            is under investigation. There are no suspects yet, but police
            believe that one person or group is responsible for all of the
            crimes. 
             The
            first vehicle, a pickup truck, parked at the owners residence in
            the 500 block of Tremont, was entered through the rear sliding door.
            It is estimated that $400 worth of property was stolen: a radio,
            duffle bag, four clothing items, prescription sunglasses, two
            flashlights and a disposable camera. The
            second vehicle had an AM/FM CD player stolen. To gain entry, the
            suspects forced entry to the side door of the 93 Jeep, which was
            parked in front of the owners residence in the 300 block of
            Tremont. The radio is worth about $100. Two
            cars were broken into in a residential parking lot on the 100 block
            of S. Logan St. One vehicle, a truck, had a CD player removed; the
            suspects removed the dash cover to take the $200 unit. The
            other vehicle, a van, had a radar detector removed. The detector is
            worth about $100. If
            you have any information about these crimes, please contact the
            Lincoln Police Department at 732-2151 or Crime Stoppers at 732-3000.
