20 Cars Broken Into, One Arrest: Newton Police Logs

NEWTON, MA — Here's a sample of the other types of calls the Newton Police Department respond to each day from the Newton Police logs, crime chart and sometimes police scanner radio, which are public. Arrests do not imply conviction. And just because someone reports a crime does not mean it happened that way.

Several attempted home break ins: An Auburn Street resident called police to report an attempted break in. The responding officer saw the backdoor and door jam had significant damage but it did not appear that anyone was able to make it into the house. While the officer was at this address, another Auburn street resident reported she,too, was the victim of an attempted break in. Police went to her home and saw that it appeared someone attempted to force the door open, there, too. The locking mechanism was pushed, breaking some of the door jam. Shortly after a Prospect Street resident reported an attempted Break in around the corner at approximately 7:15 p.m.

Child molested: A child was reportedly molested. No further info was available.
