CAMBRIDGE, Mass. — Police at Harvard University issued an advisory to students following three break-ins at two dorms.
Police said one break-in took place in Mower Hall and two others happened in Wigglesworth Hall from July 7-11. Three laptops, AirPods, an iPad, an Apple Smart Keyboard and pencil, and prescription glasses were reported stolen.
In two of the reports, residents said they had fans in their windows, and the break-ins happened while they were asleep.
Residents are advised not to prop open doors, close their windows when they leave their rooms and keep an eye out for suspicious behavior outside their dorms.
Police are investigating whether the break-ins are connected. Anyone with information is asked to contact the Harvard University Police Department Criminal Investigation Division at 617-495-1796.
