Daily News | Philly’s Seaport Museum break-in under investigation
The two burglars gained entry to the museum, located at 211 South Christopher Columbus Boulevard, at about 4:40 a.m. last Friday, according to city police. They made off with a welder and some tools before museum security could reach the scene.
The Seaport Boat Shop gives visitors the opportunity to observe and learn about wooden boat building and sailing in the Delaware Valley and Jersey Shore. Privately owned vessels are built there, and the museum’s own boat collection is maintained at the shop. “No museum operations were impacted as the perpetrators never got close to the museum exhibitions and would have had to pass through several more locked and alarmed doors to reach any potential area of vulnerability,” said Peter S. Seibert, President and CEO of the museum.“Our visitors can expect the museum’s exhibitions and programming to be fully available and unaffected by this incident,” Seibert said.It’s the first exhibit of the new Richard C.
The modern tools taken in the break-in weren’t unique and are being replaced, the president noted. The door the burglars broke to enter the Boat Shop has been repaired. If members of the public have any information about the individuals in this security video, they are asked to contact city police:
