Police: Convicted burglar hits same house
BOLINGBROOK, Ill. (UPI) -- Police in Illinois said a man on probation for burglary returned to the home he was convicted of stealing from and took many of the same items.
Bolingbrook police Lt. Mike Rompa said "a laptop computer, camera, Wii and Xbox video game systems, a platinum and diamond engagement ring, other jewelry, stocks, bonds and $50 in change -- roughly $20,000 worth of property" was stolen during the Nov. 30 break-in, The (Joliet, Ill.) Herald reported.
Investigators said similarities to a May 28, 2009, burglary at the residence led them to interview Robert Osewski, 20, who was on probation for the prior crime.
Osewski and alleged accomplice Anthony Gant, 21, were arrested and charged with residential burglary. Osewski was charged with an additional count of possession of stolen property.
Police said some of the stolen items were recovered in a Lemont forest preserve.
