The homeowners contacted police on Wednesday afternoon when they noticed the rear sliding glass door had been shattered.

But it didn't appear that anything had been rummaged through. TVs and other valuables were left untouched.

It appeared that a Smith & Wesson handgun had been taken, along with a silver men's bracelet. A file cabinet in the garage had also been forced open.
