Burglaries, car prowls reported at Fancher Heights

Tuesday, January 8, 2013

EAST WENATCHEE — Prowlers hit the Fancher heights subdivision Sunday night and early Monday morning, entering open garages and ransacking vehicles parked on the street.

Three burglaries and five vehicle prowls were reported Monday, said Douglas County Sheriff Harvey Gjesdal.

“Items stolen included tools, cash, electronic devices and other valuables that could be easily carried away,” Gjesdal said in a press release. “The thieves did not force entry but appeared to be looking for open and unlocked doors.”

The Douglas County Sheriff's Office asks that all citizens keep a close eye on security. Many criminals look for easy access. Simple thing like keeping your cars locked, garage doors closed, and valuables out of sight can make the difference. If you have any questions please fee free to contact me at the Sheriff's Office. 884-0941. Best Regards, Sheriff Harvey Gjesdal
