8/3/2002

Sylvania Township police are seeking information about the thief who broke into a family van last month and stole a TV, CDs, video games, and home movies.

The person broke into the white 2000 Ford van late July 23 or early July 24 while it was parked at a car dealership in the 5500 block of West Central Avenue, police said. The thief used a screwdriver to break the driver's side door lock.

A flat-screen, flip-down TV was stolen along with other items worth $3,500. The family is particularly interested in getting back the home movies, police said.

Anyone with information about the theft should call the Toledo Crime Stopper program at 419-255-1111 or township police at 419-882-1250.
