Just two days after police were trying to link a series of shed and garage break-ins to a west-end arson, officers are looking into a few more thefts.

At least one is being investigated as connected to the 28th Street arson. Someone entered an unlocked shed in the 200-block of 26th Street and stolen a can of gas. Although it happened the same night in the same area as the arson, it wasn't reported until late Thursday morning.

Police also say that a garage had been entered on Balsam Crescent. The break-in happened sometime Wednesday night but, although items were rummaged through, nothing appears to have been stolen.

A third break-in was also reported Thursday morning, to a yard in the zero-hundred block of Ninth Street North. A lock was cut off the yard's fence to get in, and some firewood as well as a vehicle wheel was taken. Police say the culprits also tried to break in to a house and two garages on the property, but were unsuccessful.

All of the break-ins are still under investigation.
