The KU Public Safety Office is investigating a series of car burglaries on campus.
Between 3:30 a.m. Saturday and 2:30 p.m. Sunday, four vehicles were reportedly broken into in two separate parking lots. Two vehicles were broken into in Lot 114, which is at Stouffer Place. One vehicle had a CD player stolen and damage done to the dashboard, with a total damage of $207. The second vehicle’s glove box was disheveled, but no items were taken. In Lot 105 at McCollum Hall, one vehicle had the faceplate of a CD player stolen. The damage was listed at $100. A car stereo was stolen from the other vehicle with a value of $300, plus $100 worth of damage done to the dashboard.
Capt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said no connection had been established between the burglaries, but that the possibility was being investigated because of the time span. He said the Public Safety Office was following up on the reports by checking used-goods stores for the items.
Bailey reminded students to take necessary precautions when choosing parking spots.
“Park in well-lit areas, with nothing of value in plain sight,” Bailey said, “and remove face plates from stereo systems.”
Anyone with information can contact the Public Safety Office at 864-5900 or remain anonymous by calling KU Crime Stoppers at 864-8888.
