At 4:47 a.m., Glynn County Police Department responded to a burglar alarm at Thomas Coastal Properties on the Scranton Connector. Less than 10 minutes later, police conducted a traffic stop of a Jeep Cherokee on Spur 25 at the Glynco Parkway. Officers said they clearly saw a crowbar and Atlanta Braves hat that they believe were used in several recent business burglaries.
