Vehicle Burglaries—

According to police reports, during nighttime hours around Dec. 22, the borough saw multiple vehicle burglaries; at least nine of which have been confirmed.

Shortly after the incidents were reported, police said they encountered two suspicious individuals at the 100 block of E. Summerfield Ave.; a juvenile male whose name could not be released, and 19-year-old Alexander T. Thomas, of Camden City.

After establishing a perimeter, officers reportedly located the individuals at the corner of Haddon Ave. and Crestmont Terr., and recovered various items and articles on their persons which were later found to be stolen property.

Stolen items, said police, were linked to the large volume of vehicle burglaries in Collingswood around Dec. 22.

Police could not provide a combined estimated value for the allegedly stolen goods, but said the items included various amounts of loose change and currency, a digital camera valued at $100, and a GPS navigation unit valued at $100.

According to reports, the individuals were charged with Receiving Stolen Property.

The juvenile perpetrator was released to his parents, said police, while Thomas was remanded to the Camden County Correctional Facility.
