Bloomfield Township police are investigating a pair of apparently unrelated burglaries that occurred on Monday, November 25. Officers responded about 3 p.m. to the complaint of a home invasion in the 2000 block of Cloverlawn Road where the homeowner arrived home to discover an open door to his garage. Once inside, the homeowner found the front door unlocked and all the drawers in his bedrooms open. An undisclosed amount of cash and jewelry were stolen during the incident. Officers responded about 5:40 p.m. to a second home invasion in the 200 block of Eileen Street.
