Three burglaries since the first of the year have been concentrated in the northeast section of the county. Other break-ins in Caldwell and Union counties have also been reported.
The circumstances have been largely the same in case with intruders breaking down doors at homes during daylight hours while owners were at work or away from the home. Guns and money appear to be the primary targets of the burglars.
Crittenden County Sheriff Wayne Agent encourages residents to be vigilant. Pay attention to strange vehicles and get license numbers if you have reason to be suspicious. To report tips, call 965-3500. Stay tuned for more details in The Crittenden Press printed edition this week.
