Pair of Home Burglaries Reported on Greenfield's West Side

Greenfield police are investigating a pair of burglaries on the city’s west side that do not appear to be related.

According to police, on July 22, residents of a home in the 4400 block of South 114th Street told police a basement window had been kicked in and $150 cash taken from the home while they were gone between 8 a.m. and 7:30 p.m. July 22.

A few days earlier, in the 11200 block of West Layton Avenue, a man who has been watching over his deceased sister’s home told police he believes it was entered several times without his permission between July 19-20.

He said the car was taken out of the garage and returned and that the suspect likely got in through an unlocked side garage door. He said the car and house keys had been left in the car in the garage.

He also said a cold soda bottle was left on the kitchen table.
