Boulder police are investigating two burglaries on University Hill
that could have compromised some local shoppers' personal and credit
card information, said police spokeswoman Sarah Huntley.

A manager for Jones General Store, 1370 College Ave., called police
early Friday to report an overnight break-in and theft of credit card
receipts. A short time later, at about 11:30 a.m., an owner of Root of
the Hill, a business in the same building, called officers to report a
break-in, theft and extensive vandalism, Huntley said.

 Officers are still looking for the missing credit card receipts,
which could personal information from shoppers who visited the
business during an unknown period of time.

"People should be aware that if they have shopped at Jones, they did
have some receipts taken, and it's a good idea to be cognizant of
activity on your credit card," Huntley said. "If people notice
anything, in terms of their credit cards, please let the police
department know."
