Sheriff Leon Lott announced today the investigation of unknown suspects in connection with a string of burglaries.

Sheriff Lott stated that over the past month, unknown suspects forced entry ( i.e. breaking glass/ prying open door)  into area businesses and stole cigarettes from the locations. Several of these burglaries have similarities that are being reviewed by investigators. Similarities: multiple suspects involved, time of day, items taken, wearing gloves, ski mask/ or ball cap/ or  physically covering face.  

Anyone with information is urged to call crimestoppers at 1-888-559-tips where your anonymous tip could earn you up to $1000.00 cash.

Sheriff Lott would like to also remind businesses wishing to receive free crime prevention training to visit our website at www.rcsd.net and contact  the  community action team.
