Car break-ins along Hopkins Road under investigation by Sheriff's Office
We just received this message from the Chief Jerome Brewster, Genesee County Sheriff's Office:
Yesterday, we investigated a series of larcenies from parked vehicles along Hopkins Road, T/Batavia. Deputy Thompson reported that approximately 20 vehicles were entered, none forcibly, and items removed. Thefts occurred during the early morning hours of July 20 (approximately 12 AM to 5:30AM). We ask that anyone with information please contact us at 345-3000 x3227 (Deputy Thompson) or call the main number at 343-5000. Attached below are photographs of two bicycles that were found in the area. We hope that some of your viewers might be able to identify the owners for us.
UPDATE: Deputy Brian Thompson sends along this update:
Just to clarify for your readers the Huffy bike in photograph is Orange in color. The photo shows pink probably due to flourescence? (SP)
These bikes are probably not the culprits but maybe. They were left on peanut tracks just off from Hopkins Rd. along with some dropped evidence. The entries into vehicle happened Sunday Night and Early Monday Morning. 11:30 to 12:00 PM to about 05:30 AM.
Please remind readers to keep valuables in house and cars locked. Different age we now live in!! Thanks for your valuable service!
