On Friday, December 7th between 2:00am and 3:00am, several vehicles were burgled in the area of Sundance Boulevard off Shepherd Road in Mulberry.
The suspects entered unlocked vehicles and removed property to include jewelry, tools and a loaded Sig Sauer P320 9mm pistol.
Recovered video surveillance showed several suspects wearing hooded sweatshirts in the area attempting to enter vehicles.
A light colored sport utility vehicle, possibly a Ford Explorer, was recorded driving without lights on in an adjoining subdivision around the same time and is believed to be involved. If anyone has information about these crimes or the identity of the suspects involved please contact Det. Walsh at (863)499-2400, or if you'd like to remain anonymous, you can call Heartland Crime Stoppers at 1-800-226-TIPS (8477). Anonymity is guaranteed!
