Burglary at LDS Church in Logan
Early this morning, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the corner of 9th North and 16th East was broken into. Two computers were stolen in the process, and Sheriff Deputy Geoffrey Hasty is investigating the burglary. Although no suspects are being pinpointed at the moment, he has some leads. He believes this to be the act of at least two juveniles, breaking in through a window in the Bishop’s office. “The window is just high enough that you would have to be hoisted up by another person to get in,” said Hasty. Two monitors were smashed in the hallway of the LDS Meetinghouse, leading to charges of vandalism as well as burglary.
The first person to arrive on the scene was the maintenance manager Robert (Bob) Knotz. “It looked as though the burglars entered through the window and unlocked the door from the inside.” Although Bob says coming up to an unlocked door usually doesn’t mean anything, he still wanted to investigate and stumbled upon the two smashed monitors in the hallway of the Mormon Church. Knotz doesn’t believe this to be a hate crime toward the LDS Church, but more of just some juveniles being kids.
Around 2 a.m. a neighborhood resident, Evelyn Breathwaite, heard something disturbing shattering noise across the street from her house. Although Evelyn lives right across the street from the LDS Church, she never would’ve thought someone would have broken into it. “Nothing like this has happened to this Church in 50 years” Evelyn stated, and she still considers it to be a safe neighborhood and isn’t scared to stick around.
