David Owens of The Hartford Courant writes Tuesday about how the paper’s business editor, Dan Haar, stopped a robbery at his home on Monday night.
Owens writes, “The homeowner, Courant Business Editor Dan Haar, said he thought it was suspicious when he saw a bicycle that did not belong to him on his front stoop. ‘I [saw] two screen doors swung open, like people had been around,’ Haar said today.
“Haar then went to his back porch. ‘I start to open the door and I hear people in the house,’ he said.
“Haar went back to the front of his house and saw three people run out the side of his house — they smashed out a window screen to escape — and run south on Foxcroft. They left behind the bike on the front stoop.”
