A Mississippi State University student profiled in the Monday edition of The Dispatch was the victim of a burglary Tuesday night at his home in Starkville.
Wyn Dawson, 25, arrived home at the corner of Fellowship and Hogan streets Tuesday shortly after 10:30 p.m. to find his apartment door pried open, the frame in pieces and approximately $2,500 worth of electronics missing, he said. Among the items taken were a television, computer equipment, a camera and an alarm clock, Dawson said. An Apple computer taken from the apartment was less than two weeks old.
Dawson was working a 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. shift at Central Station Grill when the break-in occurred. When he arrived home after his shift, he discovered the damaged door and missing property.
The Starkville Police Department responded to the scene and is continuing to investigate the case. Anyone with information can contact Starkville police at 662-323-4131.
