Police are searching for two men after a pair of homes were burglarized within 30 minutes Tuesday evening.

The first burglary was reported around 6:50 p.m. on the 35800 block of Spruce Street after burglars entered the home through a rear window, according to Newark police.

While police were investigating, the second burglary was reported on the 6100 block of Marguerite Drive.
