The building had been unlocked at the time the burglary occurred. The weed eater had an estimated value of $100.
Lawrenceburg Police officers responded to a home on Suzanne Street where the resident reported someone had broken into her garage and stole a generator, a variety of hand and power tools, and some lawn tools. Altogether, loss was placed at $3,364.
A second Suzanne Street resident reported that a Stihl brand weed eater and a Stihl brand leaf blower had been stolen, resulting in a $500 loss.
A sewing machine and ten totes filled with sewing-related items were reported stolen by a woman who rents a storage unit at a Mattoxtown Road facility. She told police officers that a corner cabinet had been stolen, as well. The items had a combined value of around $1,550.
Authorities were also asked to investigate the burglary of a residence on Clearview Avenue.
