Lebanon Burglary Clues Slim Despite Repeated Heists
Lebanon police say Ehrlich's Super Market on Columbus Avenue suffered a $24,000 burglary between 11 p m Sunday and 1 a m Monday. Thieves pried a rear door, moved a safe with cash and checks, and possibly used a 1954 truck from across the street. Three fingerprint sets were taken as investigators and London police experts pursue leads. The case follows two prior robberies totaling $17,000 and marks the third incident in three months for Ehrlich. The crime scene features thick shrubbery aiding concealment and irregular patrol rounds noted by Capt. Tom Johnson.
