Investigators say the people who broke in were more interested in causing damage than stealing property. Mike Haley, the homeowner, said that vandals broke water pipes and flooded the house. It caused an estimated $225,000 in damage.

"We have a great neighborhood, and great neighbors. And it's a shock really, that this happened," Haley told CBS4 last April.
