The front entrance doors, where the suspect was believed to have entered, were found completely shattered… and the backdoor glass was not shattered, but discovered to be open slightly…   HYANNIS, MASSACHUSETTS – Officers discovered two shattered glass doors where someone entered a downtown beauty parlor last evening. Minutes after 10:00 p.m., a Barnstable Police patrolwoman investigating a showroom motion/ front door commercial alarm at 701 Main Street radioed there had been a breaking and entering into the business. Angles Hair Design – located at the intersection of Main Street, South Street, and Potter Ave – has been in business in the West End of Hyannis since 1993, according to online sources. Additional Barnstable PD squad cars, including a K-9 unit, immediately responded to assist. The suspect had fled prior to police arriving on scene. As you will see in the following HN “video,” officers searched the immediate area for possible suspects and surveillance cameras which may have captured images of the suspect. A member of the sheriff’s crime scene unit responded to photograph, collect and process evidence. The thief is believed to have gotten away with a small amount of cash, estimated to be around $40 or more, according to a source on scene.  (It remains uncertain whether anything else had been taken.)  The investigation is active and ongoing. The following HN “video” contains still photographs and police radio transmissions. No further details available at the time of this report… [HN VIDEO – PRESS PLAY] P.S. – Today’s Hytown Vignette is brought to you by Loretta Lynn & Conway Twitty…  [CLICK IT/CRANK IT!
