Burglars broke into four township homes this week, making off with cash, jewelry, and cameras.
Police say they don’t know whether any of the incidents, which occurred between dusk on Monday and dawn on Wednesday, are related.
Early Tuesday evening, a 33-year-old deaf woman reported that she was at her West Englewood Avenue home when a man wearing a ski mask broke in and stole a jewelry box containing more than $1,000 worth of jewelry, police said. The burglar left quickly, leading police to believe he either saw the woman or heard a burglar alarm activated in the home. The woman ran to a neighbor’s house to summon police.
Late Tuesday, an Elmer Place resident told police he came home to find someone had kicked in his rear door, rifled through drawers in his bedroom, and stole about $200, small pieces of jewelry, and other items.
A Fairview Avenue home was burglarized late Monday or early Tuesday, police said. The owner came home from work about 2 a.m. Tuesday to find a desk ransacked and numerous items stolen, including $500, jewelry, a camera, a television, and a video camera.
In the fourth incident, early Wednesday, burglars failed to make off with any belongings. A Glenwood Avenue homeowner told police that two men kicked in her door and searched dressers and closets while she hid. The two burglars ran out when they heard noise, she told police.
Sgt. Robert Adomilli said anyone with information about any of the crimes should call the Teaneck Police Detective Bureau at 837-2565 or Crimestoppers at 833-4222.
