Burglars take sinks from former gym
MOULTRIE, Ga. — Burglars tore plumbing fixtures from the walls of a former gym last weekend.
Roscoe Stallings, of Norman Park, owns the building at 5 10th St. S.E. in Moultrie, which formerly housed Dominga Boxing and Fitness.
Sometime between Friday and Sunday, someone broke into the building through the back door, police said, and removed two sinks from the restrooms, a 60-gallon water heater, a double kitchen sink, a shower stall and 100 feet of baseboard. The officer noted “quite a bit of damage to the walls.” The stolen items were valued at $4,100, but there was no estimate on the value of the damage.
• A clerk at Susie Q’s, 1607 Camilla Highway, reported a woman entered the store Monday afternoon. She ate some ice from a cooler, then wandered through the store. She opened a bag of chips and ate some of them then put the bag back on the shelf. She walked around some more before opening a second bag of chips, spilling some of them in the floor and sweeping them under the display. She wandered through the store some more then left.
One bag of chips was valued at 59 cents and the other at 79 cents.
• Ariadna Millan, of Moultrie, reported Sunday that she laid her cell phone down at Walmart to tend to her child. She walked a few steps away, then when she returned the phone was gone. It was valued at about $180.
