Reported Stolen in New Canaan: $17,550 in Jewelry, $10 in Weed Killer

A Logan Road woman says the jewelry started going missing about one month ago from her home, which is under construction.

Police say they're investigating a Logan Road woman's complaint that six pieces of jewelry worth more than $17,000 have been stolen from her home, police said.

The 51-year-old homeowner told police she noticed that different pieces of jewelry started going missing from her home on about April 8, according to Sgt. Carol Ogrinc.

The home is currently under construction, Ogrinc said.

According to police, the missing items, which the owner last saw Easter Sunday, include: a ladies gold charm bracelet worth approximately $8,500; a ladies gold mesh style bracelet with floral accents worth approximately $1,800; another ladies gold mesh style bracelet worth approximately $1,700; a gold necklace with 35 gold diamond shaped drops worth approximately $2,400.

Ogrinc said the homeowner also reported one item last seen on April 25—a ladies gold domed mesh style bracelet worth approximately $1,550—and a ladies gold bangle bracelet worth $1,600 last seen on May 1.

Police also received a complaint from a 66-year-old female resident of the Schoolhouse Apartments on South Avenue at 10:20 a.m. on May that a roll of black mesh weed killer worth about $10 had been stolen. The roll is said to have gone missing some time between 12 p.m. May and 10 a.m. May 5, Ogrinc said.

I just called Staples. This is really disturbing to me. If I don't get a satisfactory answer, IRead More will let people know and I will also decide whether to continue shopping there. I do not like to give my money to unethical businesses.

This has convinced my growing conviction that Patch has moved completely away from any pretense ofRead More being a news source and is simply an electronic bulletin board. By abandoning their prior procedure of approving posts before they go up, they are letting anything go on and then taking them down if they're reported. By then, it's too late: the poster has gotten their message across during the time it's in the lineup. I only check in with Patch occasionally now and so many people in town won't read it at all anymore. I think we need to be honest with ourselves about what kind of a public forum this venue is. This doesn't reflect well on Staples if they are using subterfuge and violating Terms of Use on Patch either.
