Una mujer intenta entrar en una casa por la ventana:
"Perhaps she'd be unlicky and find the window closed. In that case, she would be wise to star the glass, hurl the sack inside and bolt"
Debe de ser algo como "romper" aunque sin llegar a eso, puesto que se dispone a robar y si rompiera el cristal haría ruido.
¿Qué me proponéis?
Muchísimas gracias, prozianos

estrellar el vidrio
Aunque no creo que star se traduzca como estrellar, la acción que propones es esa: romper, pero sin que los pedazos caigan, sino que se queden en su lugar: estrellar.
