8 Phones Stolen During Route 9 Burglary

Eight phones worth about $4,000 total were stolen during a break-in at a Route 9 business early Wednesday, Westborough Police Chief Alan Gordon said today.

Police responded to Applied Communications, 135 Turnpike Road, for a burglar alarm at 4:18 a.m., according to the Westborough Police log.

The front door being smashed in set off the alarm, Gordon said.

The phones were taken from the display case, he said.

Gordon believed that Applied Communications sells AT&T phones.

Meanwhile, police made one unrelated arrest Wednesday.

At 3:56 p.m., on West Main Street, police arrested Stephen K. Adjei, 35, of 12B Sever St., Apt. 20, Worcester, on a straight warrant.
