Burglars Rampage Through Indianapolis Homes

On March 12, 1925, a string of brazen burglaries hit Indianapolis, leaving a trail of shattered glass and stolen valuables in their wake. The first break-in occurred at the home of Harvey Pier, whose family was away at the time. Burglars entered through a cellar window and made off with a staggering $14 worth of clothing, a traveling bag, money, a changer, umbrella, and jewelry.
