Jan. 13—PARIS — Norway and Paris Police departments have made an arrest in the spate of recent car burglaries after a joint investigation, according to both departments’ Facebook posts Jan. 10.
Vehicles were burglarized at night, according to Norway Police Chief Jeff Campbell who listed electronics, money and purses as having been taken.
The burglary saga began in December, according to Paris police Lt. Justin Cummings. Cummings said that Paris has had 14 reported car burglaries mostly in the heart of Paris although High Street, was heavily hit.
As in Norway the burglaries were in unlocked vehicles and anything let in the vehicles was fair game. Cummings expressed frustration Monday, saying he was tired of Paris citizens being the victims of crime.
The two departments collaborated on an arrest Friday on Main Street in South Paris, and David Anderson, 38, was charged with Theft Class C, burglary of a motor vehicle Class D, refusal to submit to arrest Class D, and assault on an officer Class C.
However, this is an ongoing active investigation according to both departments and anyone with additional information is encouraged to contact either Cummings or Norway police. Paris added “as a reminder to those we serve, please lock your vehicles and remove valuables, even during the day.”
