Media Credit: Derrick Roffman A DMACC Boone Campus student had her car broken into on Thursday of last week. The front passenger door window was shattered and remains lay on the ground in the northeast side of the parking lot behind DMACC Boone Campus.

Thursday Dec. 3 the north parking lot of DMACC Boone Campus had a break in of a student's vehicle just before noon. A police officer on the scene said that five other break ins had occurred at Boone High School early that day.

"This was not a targeted incident," said Tom Lee provost of DMACC Boone Campus. "I'm sorry this happened. I have been here for five years and this is the first time anything like this has happened," said Lee.

After the police took the report and left, while DMACC employees were cleaning up the car, the student realized that her stolen purse didn't have her wallet inside.

"I forgot to put it back in my purse after getting gas," she said. So the thief didn't get away with anything more than a purse. "I had some gloves in there," the student said when her mom asked her what she truly lost.
