Midnight Burglars Loot Sadie’s Home in Canal Street
A trio of masked burglars entered Sadie’s bedchamber at 60 Canal Street Bedhaven Queans borough at 2 AM. They frightened Sadie, tied and gagged relatives, rifled rooms for money, checks, jewelry and silverware, and escaped with the loot after a confrontation that left Sadie’s cousin wounded and the father injured. A separate Ind fraud case recounts a Hartford City dispute where a wife’s cat led to a divorce after years of alleged abuse and cruelty.
