Thieves broke into the historic Fox Theater this month and stole chandeliers and tiles valued at $251,000, according to city officials.
The thieves apparently pried open a side door and stole three Spanish-style chandeliers, 300 handmade 1920s-era Spanish tiles from a stairway and 85 tiles from the basement.
The city sees the once-luxurious landmark as an integral part of its efforts to remake its faded downtown. Their goal is to turn the theater into a performance arts venue.
