(11/10/06) YAPHANK - Residents living on a Yaphank street claim thousands of dollars of goods were stolen from sheds behind their homes Wednesday night.

Police say they are looking into at least three break-ins. Residents living on Christine Street say two dirt bikes, three ATVs, a power washer, generator and multiple helmets were stolen right out of their back yard sheds. Neighbors expressed serious concern at the rash of thefts. They say if the robbers were so bold as to walk right through their front gates, nothing would stop them from entering their homes.

Anyone with information regarding the robberies is asked to contact the Suffolk County Police Department.
