All robberies should be of concern, but when thieves strike a home in broad daylight, that adds another dimension to the crime.  Fishers Police are asking for any help local residents can provide about two such incidents happening locally, about two miles apart.

One was reported in the Cherry Hills neighborhood, the second in Sunblest.  Police say the robbers kicked in the front doors of each home and the victims report missing jewelry.

Anyone with information is asked to call Fishers Police at 317-595-3300.
