BOSTON (AP) --

The campaign headquarters of Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney was burglarized
over the weekend and a television and computers stolen.

A campaign spokesman for the former Massachusetts governor described the crime as
''a routine burglary'' and did not believe it was politically motivated.

''Several laptops and a TV were stolen,'' said campaign spokesman Eric Fehrnstrom.
''All the computers are password-enabled and the hard drives are encrypted.

Officer Eddy Chrispin.
