Practice News Story 3: Crime

Early in the morning on Jan. 31st, a Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints was broken into between the hours of 11:00 p.m. and 2:00 a.m. The building is located on 16th E. and 900 N. in Logan, UT. Sheriff Deputy Geoffrey Hasty was among the police enforcement called to the scene. There were two CPUs taken from the building and two monitors in the hallway floor that appeared to have been dropped.

Evelyn Breathwaite, an woman who lives across the street, said that she had heard loud noises at about 1:45 a.m. “I thought it was the garbage truck,” said Breathwaite. She said she has always felt safe here and has never had anything like this happen before.

Robert Knotz, who is in charge of the upkeep at the building, was who called police. “I come in every Wednesday at 6:00,” “I was coming in today to replace some ceiling tiles,” Knotz said about entering the building and finding the two monitors broken on the floor. “It looked like they tried to take the CPUs and the monitors.” “They came in and left, is what it looked like,” when asked about the suspects.

Right now, suspects for the burglary are still under investigation. Police believe that there is at least two accomplices and that they are juvenile.

Great job. You got a lot of info into your story in a short time! The only thing I would recommend is to make sure you get proper names or titles correct, like with the church. Good job though.
