1951: Coleridge youth apprehended after breaking into school

Feb. 2, 1951

COLERIDGE —The Coleridge Schoolhouse was entered Sunday afternoon, the superintendent’s office broken into, and $33 was stolen. A Coleridge grade school youth admitted to the theft Tuesday and full restitution of the money was made. The office door was forced open when a hole was drilled in the door and then a hole was sawed large enough for the youth to reach inside to unlock the door. Another door inside the office where the money was kept was opened in a similar way. The tools were obtained from the shop room at the school. The youth will appear at a hearing before Judge Edward Hesse.
