A burglary took place earlier today that had Amarillo Police combing the streets in the neighborhood of the 3500 block of S Milam.  The suspect was believed to had taken firearms from the house he robbed.

"Officers are in the area of 3500 block of S. Milam searching for a burglary suspect.  A male wearing  a jean jacket and  jeans was last seen running south in the east alley.  He is believed to have taken firearms from the home and was last seen in the area at about 3:55 PM.  If you see anyone in the area that could be involved, contact the APD at 378-3038."

That message is expired, but it's a harsh reminder that burglaries always increase around the holiday season.  My suggestion, get a chihuahua!  Those dogs are like alarms!
