Two days before Hawthorne unveiled its new teen center, burglars broke in and ripped off eight computers and a flat-screen TV. So, the original Nov. 13 grand opening and ribbon cutting was postponed.
Here's the story: Burglary delays teen center opening
The city has regrouped and has a new grand opening ceremony set for 4:30 p.m. on Thursday at the Hawthorne Memorial Center, 3901 W. El Segundo Blvd. in Hawthorne. The teen center is for ages 13 to 17, and will have games, movies, tutoring, job training, etc.
I haven't heard yet whether the police tracked down any of the stolen stuff.
