There’s something in common with all 18 burglary reports Corvallis police took in the first 18 days of October – the burglars walked through unlocked doors.
Lt. Cord Wood told the Gazette-Times most of the burglaries happened at night. Burglars walked out with valuables – mostly jewelry and electronics – worth nearly $25,000.
The average number of unforced burglaries in Corvallis is about nine a month. Police urge residents to lock their doors.
