Detroit police say two men turned an east side renovation into their personal grab-and-go spot, allegedly breaking into the same house six times in less than a day while it sat empty between work shifts.
The back-to-back break-ins were reported last Thursday at a home in the 1000 block of Navahoe Street. Investigators say the pair kept slipping in through a rear door and hauling off fixtures and appliances while work crews were away.
Police release photos and offer a reward
As reported by ClickOnDetroit, officers say the men took two doors, a gas heater, a tabletop stove and other items after repeatedly forcing their way through the back door six times in a 24-hour span. The department has released surveillance images of the suspects and is offering a $1,000 reward for information that leads to an arrest, police told the station.
Anyone who recognizes the men is asked to call the 5th Precinct at 313-596-5540. Tipsters who want to stay anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-SPEAK-UP.
