Flat screen TVs, cash stolen from Ann Arbor home while owner slept

By Kyle Feldscher

A woman woke up Wednesday morning to find someone had broke into her Ann Arbor home and stole two flat screen TVs, along with cash, according to police.

Ann Arbor police Lt. Renee Bush said the home in the 3000 block of Chelsea Circle was broken into sometime between 10 p.m. Tuesday and 6:15 a.m. Wednesday. The woman had gone to bed and the home’s doors and windows were locked, Bush said.

When she woke up the next morning, she saw the front door had been forced open and the doorframe damaged, according to Bush.

The intruder went around the house and took flat screen TVs from a dresser and the kitchen table, Bush said. Cash also was stolen from various locations in the house.

Officers canvassed the area in the morning but neighbors did not report anything strange or out of the ordinary during the night, Bush said.

The investigation into the intrusion is ongoing and police still are looking for suspects. Anyone with information on the incident is encouraged to call the Ann Arbor police anonymous tip line at 734-794-6939.

too bad flat screen TVs don't come with a feature where they will take a photo of someone powering it up under "guest" mode... [see laptop story here: http://www.annarbor.com/news/crime/man-arrested-after-photo-snapped-by-laptop-stolen-during-break-in-at-ann-arbor-home/ :^]

Kyle Feldscher -- Do you read these comments? Do you understand what A2Dave was saying? If not, it should be "...someone had broken into..." not "had broke." You could say "someone broke into her home" or "someone had broken into...." but not "had broke." What high school did you go to? Grammar education is lacking (as well as copy editing)!

I might have been able to sleep through this, but my dog and the man of the house would not. (he keeps his hand guns handy) I have one handy too, but would have to wake up first.

Who sleeps through all that?

If she sleeps this hard, maybe a dog would be a wise addition to the house. I'm a light sleeper, but I have a dog to just entertain the intruder while I get Smith & Wesson for the party.

Sounds like the new "Social Justice" super Hero Struck! Taking from those who have it and giving to those that don't! Is this really a crime to level the playing field?

"Cash also was stolen from various locations in the house" Sounds like someone knew where the cash was kept.

"had broke into her Ann Arbor home and stole two flat screen" ??? Come on, please. Can we not achieve basic English literacy in this publication?

That's why the A2 News went under only to reappear as this web site. They couldn't afford to pay proofreaders and copy editors. Now they just let us readers do it for them for free.
