$4k In Seafood Taken In Another Burglary at PC Wholesaler

Tuesday night's burglary marks the third break-in at Elaine's Seafood at 150 S. Regent St. since 2010.

A burglar lifted $4,000 in seafood from a S. Regent Street wholesaler on Tuesday in what was the third burglary at the same store since 2010.

In each case, thieves made off big-time: In September, a burglar worth a combined $1,600 from Elaine's Seafood. In March of 2010, a burglar took 12 cases of squid and octopus worth $1,375.

A police report didn't specify the type of food or weight of the items stolen this week, Lt. James Ladeairous said. But the $4,000 in stolen merchandise is the biggest blow out of the three burglaries.
