Purse Stolen After Thieves Break Window

GROSSE POINTE FARMS, Mich. - A couple living in the 400 block of Colonial Court reported the theft of a designer handbag. Last night, the couple says they were asleep when an unknown suspect or suspects broke a window in their house and stole a Dooney and Bourke purse.

Police confirmed that the home had a broken window, which was likely how the thieves gained entry. The homeowners, asleep at the time of the incident, only realized they’d been victims when they woke up and saw the damage to their home.
