Office Building Is Burglarized
A burglar hit a Valley office building over the weekend, breaking down doors and burglarizing half a dozen businesses inside.
Affected businesses included Printing Resources, Contractors Specialties, the law firm of Montgomery, Carroll and Gales, and several others, sheriff’s deputies said.
A custodian at the office building, located at 408 N. Mullen, called police about 6 a.m. Monday when he arrived at work and found the damage. The burglar broke a second-story window and climbed in, then proceeded to kick in doors and break into closets and file cabinets, deputies said.
With the exception of a hand-held camcorder and an answering machine, the burglar took only small, easily removed objects, sheriff’s deputies said.
“There wasn’t any (wanton) vandalism,” said Martin Gales, a partner at Montgomery, Carroll and Gales. “It looked like they were mostly searching for cash or small items.”
The businesses have increased security and surveillance around the building, Gales said.
No arrests have been made, according to sheriff’s deputies.
