5 implicated in theft of $8k in silver coins from Laconia man By gAil oBeR
THE LACONIA DAILY SUN
LACONIA — Five people, included two men who are brothers, and two women who are sisters, are facing a variety of charges related to the burglary of a Lake Street home and subsequent theft of thousands of dollars worth of silver. According to police affidavits, on September 26 Chad Verrill, Randy Verrill, and Susan Weeks allegedly went to the home of a Lake Street man after learning from someone the man had a locked gun safe in his closet. Chad and Randy Verrill are each charged with burglary, theft, and breach of bail. A fourth person, Lindsey McNeel allegedly let them in to the home and is charged with being an accomplice to burglary and being an accomplice to theft. A fifth person, Nicole Perra is charged with one misdemeanor count of lying to police. Although the police affidavits don’t detail what the relationship was between the victim and McNeel and Pera, who are sisters, presumably he knew them both and one or both had access see SiLVEr page 7
