A Lewin Plumbing and Heating customer reported to police Monday that someone charged his account with the store for items he did not purchase.

A boiler ($2,148) and miscellaneous parts ($1036) were charged to his store account and sent to a home (not his) in Bridgeport, police said. He did not place either of the orders. According to employees at the Kings Highway East shop, the instructions for the order were to leave the materials outside the Bridgeport home.

This is under investigation.
