Jewelry Taken From 2 Rochester Hills Houses in Saturday Night Break-Ins

Two separate home invasions - two miles apart - were reported Saturday night in Rochester Hills. 

According to reports from the Oakland County Sheriff's Office, both homes were entered through the back door with a pry tool. Jewelry items were taken from both homes, according to a sheriff's office report. 

The break-ins were reported around 10:30 p.m.

The first home invasion occurred in the 2100 block of East Shore Drive, west of Dequindre and south of Hamlin. Foot prints from the rear of that home led to the driveway of a home under construction down the street, the report stated.

The second home invasion occurred in the 700 block of Bliss Drive, west of John R and north of Hamlin Road. In that instance, sheriff's deputies followed foot prints leading from the back of the home, and a K-9 unit tracked the scent to the 600 block of Windsong, where it was lost, according to the report.

The investigations are ongoing.
