Burglars Targeted Two Bryn Mawr Homes Last Week: Police

BRYN MAWR, PA — Lower Merion Township Police said two homes were targeted by burglars last week, and in one instance the burglars were successful.

The first incidents occurred between Thursday and Saturday.

A home on the 1000 block of Mount Pleasant Road was broken into sometime between 2 p.m. Thursday and 12:18 p.m. Saturday, police said.

The burglar got into the home by breaking a second-floor bathroom window.

After getting inside the home, the burglar stole jewelry and cash, police said.

Then at 6:41 p.m. on Friday, an attempted break in occurred at a home on the 1200 block of Ridgewood Road in Bryn Mawr.
