Two homes in the 100 block of Sherwood Avenue were reported burglarized over the weekend, said police Lt. Bobby Stewart this morning.
Friday at 3:23 p.m., a Toshiba laptop computer valued at $700 and three gold chains valued at $200 were reported stolen from one of the homes.
The other burglary was reported at 2:51 a.m. Sunday. Missing was a Nintendo Wii game system valued at $300, a 32-inch Dynex TV valued at $350 and an iPod valued at $100.
In both cases, the homes were entered through a window, Stewart said.
Sherwood Drive is part of the Enchanted Hills subdivision that includes Enchanted, Starlight and Moonmist drives and Shady Lane, where residents formed a neighborhood watch in February 2010 following burglaries and suspicious activity, including the suspected sale and possession of drugs.
