The Double Ponds Water Association office on Columbia Avenue was robbed last week.

The perpetrator broke in the front door at approximately 3 a.m. on May 2 and took money from the cash register and the safe. He also ransacked the office.

“The guy made several mistakes,” said Prentiss Police Chief Richard Browning. “Because of those mistakes, I am extremely confident the person or persons will be prosecuted and put in prison.”

The incident remains under investigation. If you have any information regarding this matter, please contact the Prentiss Police Department at 601-792-5198.

The print edition of The Prentiss Headlight incorrectly states it was Lily Rose Water Association that was robbed. We sincerely apologize for our error.
