2 Ann Arbor businesses broken into during weekend
Ann Arbor police reported two businesses were broken into during the weekend. One of them was vandalized, and six computers were stolen from the other.
Ann Arbor police Lt. Renee Bush reported the first incident took place between 11 p.m. Friday and 5:30 a.m. Monday at a business in the 1600 block of Newport Road. Bush said an employee arrived for work Monday morning and found a door was damaged.
Items were strewn about the business, but nothing has been reported stolen at this point.
Sometime between 10 p.m. Friday and 6:30 a.m. Sunday a person broke into a business in the 2500 block of Jackson Avenue. The person appeared to have entered through an unlocked door, Bush said.
Six laptop computers and miscellaneous items were reported stolen.
No suspect descriptions were available in either of the incidents Tuesday afternoon.
Anyone with information on these incidents is encouraged to call the Ann Arbor police anonymous tip line at 734-794-6939 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK UP (773-2587).

Sounds like the bank, Verizon or the mattress store was broken into. Unlocked door? Possibly the negligence of a trusted insider, who meant to come back over the weekend and steal. AND DID!

Anyone with information on these incidents is encouraged to call the Ann Arbor police anonymous tip line at 734-794-6939 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK UP (773-2587). It's pretty difficult to provide info to anyone without knowing the NAME of the businesses that were broken into.

Why not name the businesses? Why is revealing the names of businesses being withheld?

A business, or Forsythe Middle School? I don't see any businesses in that part of Newport.

This crime was committed over a weekend. A school would be more likely than another business NOT to have any employees inside during a weekend.
