Five callers reported items missing from their cars. At 136 Bay Street, three of Phoebe Bridges's cars were entered and $50 was stolen. Tanya Miller's car was broken into at 4 William Street and a $500 camera was taken.

The thief or thieves also made off with $78 from Mare Dianova's car at 26 Grand Street and with $100 from Jill Musnicki's Subaru at 285 Madison Street. Kayleigh Randall had her $205 Ray-Ban sunglasses stolen from her 2012 Jeep, parked at 57 Rysam Street.
