Incident Summary

On August 26, 2026, at approximately 12:00 p.m., two residents of 88 School Street reported a break-in and ransacking of their residence while they were away. The victims reported that various household items had been moved, and one of their cellular phones was missing.

Later that day, at approximately 2:46 p.m., police responded to a report of two individuals stealing items from the same residence. The suspects were identified as Stephanie A. HALL, 44, and her daughter.

During the investigation, it was determined that HALL gained entry into the residence by forcing open the back door and then unlocked the front door for BUTERBAUGH. Once inside, HALL damaged a 68-inch flat-screen television, valued at approximately $500, by throwing multiple items at it.

HALL admitted to entering the residence earlier that morning, along with BUTERBAUGH, as a prank on the homeowners. She also confessed to taking one of the resident's cellular devices and moving it outside the back door.

Appropriate charges have been filed in connection with this incident. All persons are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
