2 More Area Businesses Burglarized Overnight: Suffolk Police

TERRYVILLE, NY — Two area businesses in Terryville and Medford were burglarized within a span of hours on Friday, Suffolk police said.

Sometime between midnight and 4 a.m., a door was broken at Dunkin' on Route 112 in Terryville and money was stolen, police said. The front door of Speedway on Horseblock Road in Medford was broken open with a crowbar and money and cigarettes were stolen just before 3 a.m., according to police.

No other details were immediately available.

It's under investigation if the burglaries are related to that of Hummus Mediterranean Grill in Holbrook on Jan. 9, a police spokeswoman said. The restaurant had its window broken by a burglar at about 6:30 a.m. and the burglar "fled when they realized there was an employee in the store," police said.

The restaurant was one of about 12 throughout Holbrook, Bohemia, Smithtown, Lake Grove, and East Setauket that were burglarized between Sept. 23 and Oct. 7. At about 4:30 a.m. on Oct. 6, a concrete block was thrown through a glass door and money was taken.

The Jan. 9 burglary is under investigation as to whether it is connected to the burglary pattern from the fall, a police spokeswoman said.
