Corpus Christi police investigate gymnastic facility burglary

CORPUS CHRISTI - The trigger for a gymnastics facility's alarm system early Tuesday was mistaken for a roaming cat but turned out to be a sign of burglary.

The owner of Mary Jane's Gymnastics on Jean Street told Corpus Christi police that an alarm that detects motion had been set off during the night. But the alarm company didn't have police respond that night because the owner thought a cat in the building was to blame, police said.

It turned out that a computer monitor was taken and the surveillance cameras had been damaged.

Police are asking anyone with information about the burglary to call Crime Stoppers at 888-8477 or the Corpus Christi Police Department's Property Crimes Unit.
