Breaking and Entering...

on Tuesday, December 30, 2008

When the police do it is it called breaking and entering? So before Christmas, Bryce and Chareen found out that two apartments in their complex had been broken into and their electronics and presents had been stolen. Bryce was leaving the next day for San Jose and Chareen was going to be home by herself for a couple days. Chareen didn't feel safe, especially since the rumor was a previous maintenance man was behind it and he had lived in their apartment. They then went to Walmart and bought new locks and Bryce changed them. Well, on December 29th their downstairs neighbor heard noise coming from their apartment that sounded like someone was up there and breaking things. So he went down to the manager and she called the police. The police thought they heard something and thought that someone was pressing against the door and the manager didn't have a key since they had changed the locks. The police then broken down the door and found nothing. Then Bryce was called and apprised of the situation. He called Chareen and she left work to get the new key and to see the huge dent in their door. If they had been called first they could have avoided the dent since Chareen works 3 blocks from home and could have met the police when they arrived. Overall it was a really interesting situation and they are not sure what to make of the whole thing.

First is the picture of the door frame they broke through. Next is a picture of the the dent in the door. Luckily they getting a new door this week.
