Angels Camp, CA — Angels Camp Police Chief Dale Mendenhall says that two residential break-ins that occurred on Monday within the city limits are likely related to the robbery at the Murphys Hotel on Tuesday.

“The investigation is still continuing, so there is not a lot of information that we can release at this point,” says Mendenhall. “We don´t want to compromise the investigation.”

The break-ins on Monday occurred in the 1300 block of Finnegan Ln. and the 1600 block of Vallecito Rd. Items taken included gold chains, coins, a handgun and a digital camera.

Early Tuesday morning at the Murphys Hotel, a masked gunman entered and forced a janitor on duty into the kitchen where his hands were duct taped behind his back and a towel placed over his head. An undisclosed amount of cash was stolen.
