Evanston Police Department officers at 10:48 a.m. on Wednesday responded to a report of a theft in the 100 block of Clyde Avenue in south Evanston.

An Evanston resident hired a moving company to transport items from San Francisco to Evanston, and alleges that the employees from the company took several items from the boxes, said Evanston police Cmdr. Ryan Glew.

Glew added that the movers were never alone in the apartment with the items, and that the resident is currently seeking reimbursement from the company.
