Bangor police responded Monday morning to three separate overnight car burglaries, although it wasn’t known if the incidents were related.

Police went to an Essex Street apartment where a woman told them her wallet with $15, credit cards, her driver’s license and her Social Security card were missing from her locked car. Police found no signs of forced entry, according to the police report.

On nearby Grove Street, a Hampden woman reported that her car, too, had been broken into overnight, but nothing was missing. She said she knew someone had entered the car, because she found a cigarette burn on her seat that wasn’t there earlier.

Police were also called Monday to a Sanford Street apartment when a woman reported items missing from her unlocked car.

The Bangor woman told Officer Paul Colley that her $120 leather purse, checkbook, driver’s license and credit cards were taken. From the same car, a Bangor man reported his wallet with $3, military identification card, driver’s license and Social Security card all were missing.

Police have no leads, but Sgt. Ed Potter said the cases may be related due to the proximity of Essex and Grove streets, but the Sanford Street incident complicated the matter.
