Credit-card information stolen from day-care center

Cape Girardeau police are investigating a weekend burglary at a local day-care center.

Sometime between 6 p.m. Friday and 6 p.m. Saturday, someone broke into Just Kids, 6 Girardeau Court, Suite 101, and stole a safe containing checks and credit-card information, said Darin Hickey, public information officer for the Cape Girardeau Police Department.

Police had no suspects Tuesday, Hickey said.

"At this stage, it's still being investigated," he said.

Hickey advised people to keep an eye on their accounts and report any suspicious activity immediately.

"People always ask, 'How do I keep from being a victim of identity theft and having my credit-card number stolen?' and my No. 1 thing I tell people is, 'Be diligent,'" he said.

A woman answering the phone Tuesday at Just Kids referred questions to her supervisor, who was not available for comment.
