NORTH COVENTRY — Police are investigating a residential burglary after the homeowner reported a gun missing on Feb. 10.
Township police said, officers arrived at the house in the 2300 block of St. Peters Road around 1:50 p.m. after the homeowner said the master bedroom “had been rummaged through” and a Smith and Wesson .357 caliber revolver was taken from a bedroom closet.
There were no visible signs of forced entry into the house, police said, but a neighbor told responding officers they saw a man at the house around 10:30 a.m. the same day.
The neighbor told police the man, “looked like a hillbilly that was unshaven with rotten teeth.” Police said the white man who has a medium build was wearing a tan canvas-style barn jacket with a knit or wool hat.
The suspect was driving what investigators believe to be a gray Toyota Corolla four-door sedan with an awareness ribbon magnet on the back.
