LAWRENCE — A 37-inch Dell flat-screen television was stolen from a bedroom in a Farnham Street apartment, police said.
Police were sent to 259 Farnham St., first floor, where they met a third-floor tenant in the building who was talking on a cell phone to the man whose apartment had been broken into.
Joel Tejada, the third-floor tenant, told police the first-floor apartment of Reuben Torres had been broken into through the rear bedroom window about a month ago. Police climbed through the window and checked the apartment to make sure no one was there.
Torres arrived home a few minutes later and told police the television was the only thing that was missing from the apartment.
The window was damaged during the break, police said.
The break was reported at 10:40 p.m. Wednesday, police said.
