Police Blotter: What's Yours Is Mine

Vehicle Burglary
On Nov. 27, police were called to the 300 block of Conger Avenue, where unknown actors entered a Toyota that had been parked in the driveway. The glove box was ajar and several items were out of place.

Four First Night Haddonfield buttons and a PATCO Hi-Speedline pass were reported missing; everything was valued at $70. There were no signs of forced entry and police have no suspects at the time.

Vehicle Burglary
Sometime between Nov. 21 and Nov. 30, an unknown actor or actors removed motor vehicle documents and $50 in assorted coins from a black Lincoln Continental that had been parked in the driveway of a home in the 300 block of West Browning Road.

The vehicle owner said that she had seen a suspicious male around the car at some point prior to reporting it, but there were no signs of forced entry and police have no suspects at the time.

Theft from Buildings
On Nov. 28, police were called to the Collingswood Public Library to investigate the report of a theft. Security footage from the library revealed that around 1 p.m. on Nov. 25, a juvenile walked around a book cart used to block access to parts of the children’s section.

The teen was observed opening the closed drawers of the desk and removing $2, police said. He was identified as a 15-year-old male from Collingswood who was given a station-house adjustment, and agreed to complete an unspecified number of community service hours in the borough.

Theft
On Dec. 3, police were called to the principal’s office at Collingswood High School. There a student indicated that her white Samsung Galaxy S3 cell phone and Otter Box phone case had been stolen when she went to the bathroom. Police have no suspects at the time.

Bicycle Theft
On 2 p.m. Dec. 3, a resident of the 400 block of Taylor Ave reported that his unsecured Diamondback bicycle, valued at $400, had been removed from his garage. Police have no suspects at this time.

Theft
On Dec. 3, a resident of the 400 block of Center Ave. reported that someone had stolen the lower portion of her fire pit, valued at $200, from the rear of her property. She had noted its disappearance after returning home from work on Nov. 30. Police have no suspects at the time.

Shoplifting/Possession of Hypodermic Needle
On Dec. 4, a police officer at the Haddon Avenue Wawa was approached by an employee who indicated that a shoplifting was in progress. At the scene, officers confronted Deirdre Heil, 31, of Bellmawr, who allegedly pocketed two candy bars valued at less than $5 in total. Heil was arrested for shoplifting.

At the time of her processing, it was determined that Heil was also wanted on a $500 warrant from Deptford Municipal Court. Unable to meet the $500 full-cash bail, she was sent to the Camden County correctional facility.

Just six days later, on Dec. 10, police again encountered Heil outside of the WaWa at 11:30 a.m. She was reportedly shaking, visibly upset, and continually placing her hands into her purse. Officers observed that Heil was in possession of a hypodermic syringe, and arrested her for it. She was released on her own recognizance.
