UPDATE: 12:00 p.m. - The Joshua Center for Neurological Disorders has reopened after sustaining at least a couple thousand dollars in damage.

The center says the landlord is replacing the outside entrances with metal doors.

Organizers say they didn’t want the center to be closed because the kids they treat need them.

They also say the best news to come out of this incident is that the thieves did not get any files.

A dental office nearby is reviewing its security footage to see if they caught anything on camera. 

ORIGINAL - Thieves broke into the Joshua Center for Neurological Disorders on Sunday night, damaging several doors and getting away with some electronics.

The center was closed on Monday for repairs. The center posted on its Facebook page that several doors had been kicked in, and a laptop and flat-screen TV from their conference room had been stolen.

The center also thanked the community for kind words of support, saying it could have been much worse.

The Joshua Center for Neurological Disorders serves people with Asperger’s and Tourette syndromes, OCD and ADHD. It’s located on Bannister Road in KCMO.

If you were in the area on Sunday or have any information, you are asked to call Greater Kansas City Crime Stoppers at (816) 474-8477.
