Police asking anyone with information to call them.

An Oxford resident who lives on Route 67 says someone stole $15,000 worth of tools from his residence.

The owner of a house at 130 Oxford Road, or Route 67, says someone broke into a detached garage near his property and stole the assorted tools, according to a police report.

Resident Trooper Sgt. Dan Semosky said the tools were located in tall, heavy and expensive tool boxes, which were also stolen; that leads police to believe robbers must have known what they were looking for.
