Two Burglaries and A Prowler Reported to Fredericksburg Police

Two larcenies were also reported in Tuesdays police blotter.

A resident of the 1600 block of Princess Anne Street in Fredericksburg reported to police that someone broke into her home while she was on vacation and another resident of the 400 block of Canal Street reported that an iPad, jewelry and liquor were stolen from her home.

The Princess Anne Street resident was on vacation from June 11 to July 2 and found a broken window when she returned. Nothing appeared to be missing from the home.

On Canal Street, the resident reported that between 9 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. on Monday, someone stole the items from the home, but it's unclear how the burglar got in.

A female resident of the 1400 block of Payne Street told police that at about 2:15 a.m. she was awakened by her dog barking. She got up and saw two people crouching outside her basement-level bedroom window. The two people fled the scene before police arrived there and there are no known suspects at this time.
