We received a note from the Portland Police Bureau about a rash of burglaries at Portland schools, and in east Portland at David Douglas and  Parkrose schools. If you have any information, call Detective Mary Wheat at 503-823-0010.

“Portland Police are investigating a series of burglaries at schools in the Portland area that began in early December. Investigators believe that twelve burglaries have occurred at various schools and that the burglars are attempting to steal laptops and computer equipment.”

“The latest burglary was last night at Cherry Park School located at 1930 S.E. 104th Ave. Other schools that have been targeted are Gilbert Park School, Earl Boyles Elementary School, Jason Lee School, Harold Oliver Intermediate School, Gilbert Heights School, Lents School and West Powellhurst. Not all of the listed schools had computers stolen but attempts were made and investigators believe the burglars were trying to steal computers.

“Investigators from the Portland Police Bureau are working closely with school officials in an attempt to stop the burglaries and determine any possible suspects.
