The Roanoke Rapids Police Department reported the following, according to Deputy Chief Andy Jackson:

On Friday around 10:30 p.m., officers responded to an attempted burglary call in the 900 block of Monroe Street.
Occupants of the residence reported a person described as black male entered the enclosed back porch area reportedly armed.
The suspect fled when one of the residents stepped onto the porch.

On Monday, police responded to two car break-ins in the area of Gregory Drive.
The windows of both cars were broken out and purses removed. “The police department once again would like to remind everyone not to leave anything of value in your car,” Jackson said.
Anyone with information is encouraged to call the police department at 252-533-2811 or Crimestoppers at 252-583-4444.
