Stephanie Chambers said that when police came to take a report about the theft, they told her two other neighbors also reported the theft of Christmas lights Saturday night.

“(We have) two sad kiddos here,” she said.

According to Chambers, the light projector cost about $40.

“These are the new trend this year in Christmas lights,” she explained. “Ours was called ‘star shower’ and projected green and red laser lights onto the front of our house that looked like a star shower. There are many different types, some project objects such as swirling lights or snowflakes.”

Anyone with information about the thefts is asked to contact borough police at 610-838-7040.
