Ephrata Police are investigating two daytime burglaries.
Both burglaries happened Thursday between the hours of noon and 4:00 p.m. They were both within two blocks of each other, one in the 200 block of West Chestnut Street and the other in the first block of Highland Avenue.
Both homes were broken into through smashed back windows.
Police searched the areas and saw a white male in his late teens or early 20's looking in windows. The teen was seen wearing a brown jacket and a hat. A person who lives in the neighborhood told police the same teen rang the doorbell and asked a question, most likely to determine if anyone was home.
Jewlery and other small valuables were taken from the homes.
Anyone with additional information is asked to contact Ephrata Police Department at 717-738-9200.
