Tools stolen

Police say that several carpet tools were reported stolen from the 6000 block of W. Grand River in Genoa Township between June 9 and June 11.

The man told police that he had noticed the basement walkout door had been kicked in about two weeks ago, but since nothing was taken, didn't make a report, according to a police report. The damage to the door didn't allow it to be locked.

Police say there were no signs of forced entry and that the tools within reach were taken while more expensive tools that were further in the room were left behind.

The man told police he would check with local pawn shops and on craigslist to see if he could find the tools and would let them know if he found anything, according to the report.
