Burglars take iPads at Ohio school break-in

Tuesday, November 29, 2011

COLUMBUS (AP) — Burglars have made off with thousands of dollars’ worth of iPads from a Roman Catholic high school in Ohio.

A Columbus police report says the thieves, using a BB gun, shot out the front doors to break into Bishop Hartley High School over the weekend.

WCMH-TV reports three computers were taken, along with several iPads with a total value of $31,000.

The principal says the theft is a tremendous disappointment for students and teachers.

Detectives are reviewing surveillance video showing suspects wearing hooded sweat shirts throwing a number of boxes over a locked gate at the school.
