A burglary was reported at Tara Hall Home for Boys. According to Tara Hall Director Jim Dumm, someone broke into his office as well as the office of his assistant Friday night. The glass was broken on the downstairs office and there were drops of blood on the glass that remained on the door. Several drawers were opened and ransacked inside that office. There was also an aluminum bat on the desk which did not belong there, the report states. There was also a pillow on the floor. In Dumm’s office, there were several coins on the floor as well as a flashlight and a water jug which was used to hold spare change. A lot of the change was missing. Also taken was a safe Dumm kept in the office. One of the items taken was a pillowcase. As the investigation was taking place, it was learned several cars had been broken into in the vicinity of Tara Hall. On the scene of one of those break-ins investigators found a pillow case believed to be the one from Tara Hall. It was sent to the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division to see if any DNA can be obtained.
