LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Lakeport Police Department is investigating two late-night burglaries and seeking leads in identifying who is responsible.
The agency said that just before 7:30 a.m. Friday officers responded to a possible burglary at Plaza Paints on South Main Street.
Two hours later, officers were dispatched to the Lakeport Christian Center Preschool on South Forbes St. for a report of another burglary, police said.
Authorities said they believe the incidents are connected.
There also was a sign that was left behind on scene and police believe it was believed to have been left there by the person involved. The small cardboard sign has a message, written in black marker, that says, “2B honest, I need a beer. Or 6.”
Police want to hear from anyone who knows of this sign or has seen a subject in possession of it and can identify them.
