A digital camera was stolen from one of the classrooms. Eliot Elementary Principal Jerry Burnell reported the incident to the police. There was no sign of forced entry, but Burnell said the thief or thieves may have gained access because of faulty door locks. A second break-in occurred the same night at Kid Care of Eliot located in the Damon Business Park on Route 236. Two portable radios and a cellular phone battery were reported stolen.
Police suspect the incidents are related.
Officer Jeffrey S. Shisler is investigating the crimes.
