Police are calling a January
burglary of a northwest suburban home "disturbing"--not just because of the stolen goods, but because the young burglars killed goldfish to avoid leaving "any witnesses." According to TribLocal, a Nintendo game system, CD player,
30 video games, 30 DVDs, a
BB gun, jewelry and fire safe containing personal papers and photographs were stolen from an
Arlington Heights home sometime between Jan. 22 and Jan. 24. When the homeowners returned, not only did they find their belongings stolen, but found their goldfish had been poisoned. Someone had poured hot sauce, mustard, ketchup and spices into their
fish tank, and all three fish were dead.
