Police Investigate Rye Rec & Brevoort Lane Larceny Cases

Rye Police are investigating several larceny cases; including three that took place during a soccer game at Rye Rec field.

Two larceny filled days are currently under "active investigation" by Rye Police Department. Police would not comment on whether any of the events of Wednesday, Sept. 14 and Friday, Sept. 16 were related. 

Rye police are investigating three cases of petit larceny that took place while the victims played on the Rye Rec soccer fields. 

In each of the three cases, iPods were removed from the unattended backpacks of teenagers. Police said the Sept. 16 incidents were still under investigation.

On the same day, police received a report of locker room theft from Rye High School. After school that day, a student discovered $80 and a Blackberry phone lifted from a locker.

Just days earlier, on Wednesday, Sept. 14, Rye police had four reports of larceny from parked cars.

An officer on patrol at 2:35 a.m. Wednesday morning discovered a grey Jeep on Rye Road with a broken front window, then discovered another similarly damaged car parked on Brevoort Lane. GPS units had been stolen from both vehicles.

Later that morning, around 9:22 a.m., another Brevoort Lane resident reported a GPS unit had been stolen from a rental car parked in their driveway by way of a broken window.

Police also received a report of a purse stolen that same morning from an unlocked car on Douglas Circle.

Let's look at the appropriateness of this post. First, it's clearly an ad because it points to aRead More specific insurance agent at a specific agency to contact. Second, it attempts to hide being an ad behind what may be useful information (or not). Third, the "person" who posted it doesn't use their real name. Instead, they use a pseudonym Divorce Information NOW. That doesn’t seem terribly reassuring to me. This the third advertising post on the “announcements” space since Rye Patch converted to the new site layout. Seems a bit of a mess to me. But hopefully someone will come along and figure out who the real poster is, their link to the advertised agent and agency, and then delete the post. After all, if it’s an ad, it should be labeled as such and the poster should pay for having it run. If that doesn’t happen, Patch won’t be able to pay its employees to keep real content on the site.
