MAYFIELD, Ohio

Theft: Wilson Mills Road

A boy, 15, reported Sept. 5 that two bottles of cologne were stolen from his backpack while he was at the high school football game.

He said he had to leave the backpack unattended on the lawn because he was not permitted to bring it into the stadium due to school policy.

When he returned for it, he saw two girls and a boy looking in it.

He chased them onto Lander Road, where they went into a home on the Highland Heights side of the roadway.

The victim subsequently went to the home with his father.

The homeowner denied any knowledge and, when officers later spoke to him, he said he had questioned his daughter and she denied any theft and did not have any cologne in her possession.

The boy said one bottle cost $100 and the other cost about $60
