Police are reviewing surveillance video to see whether they can determine who broke two large windows at south Salina business locations over the weekend.

Sometime overnight Saturday-Sunday, someone broke a four-foot by six-foot window of the storefront at 2342 Planet Avenue where CD Tradepost was located. Salina Police Captain Paul Forrester said this morning that the hole in the window was large enough for a person to get through. It appeared that whoever broke the window also was in the store and exited through the back door as the door was unlocked, he said. Nothing appeared to be missing at that location, he added.

While officers were there, they were notified that a four-foot by six-foot window at nearby Copy Co, 2346 Planet Avenue, also had been broken.

Damage to each window was estimated at $2,500, Forrester said.
