Police investigate recall office theft

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) - Green Bay police are investigating after the office seeking to recall state Sen. Dave Hansen appeared to be broken into earlier this week.

Police say petitions, a computer and T-shirts were among the items reported stolen.

The Democratic state senator is one of many lawmakers being targeted in recall efforts over the state's ongoing budget controversy.

Police Lt. David Paral told the Green Bay Press-Gazette that the incident happened on Thursday night. The burglar or burglars broke a window to enter the office and stole about $1,000 worth of items.
