Jewelry has been stolen from a few homes in the last month, police say, and they could be related instances.
Three home break-ins in the last five weeks have Cinnaminson Police thinking the burglaries are all related, said Det. Sgt. William Covert. Police have dubbed the suspects as the “pillowcase burglars” because in the Cinnaminson burglaries, as well as others in neighboring towns, pillowcases were taken to hold the jewelry stolen. Police here are currently investigating a burglary that occurred on Sunday, April 15, between the hours of 3:30 and 8 p.m. on the 100 block of Parry Road. “It’s very rare to get a daytime burglary on the weekend,” Covert said.

After a pair of residential burglaries this weekend, Moorestown Police want residents to know they’re doing everything they can to solve the crimes and prevent more in the future.
