Two behind bars for string of South Osborne break-ins, say police

A pair of suspects are under arrest for a string of South Osborne break and enters.

Police said the suspects targeted homes that were under renovation or construction in the area and stole items which were later sold online.

More than a half-dozen break-ins took place in the area through February and March, said police, and included the theft of insulation, large appliances, tools, and a debit card.

A man and a woman were arrested Thursday in the 300 block of Nassau Street. The woman initially gave a false name to arresting officers.
